When we first recognized our sovereignty we were bringing in a net of $8K
per month and living on $100 per month. We lived in a 2m x 3m travel
trailer which we parked on the street, moving it every two or three days.
We were a member of the YMCA for $100 per year, so we had full use of all
their facilities, including toilets, showers, pools, weight rooms, etc. We
had food, clothes and shelter and we were free! What more does one want?
Well, a computer for one thing. :-) After about four years of that we
created a small, private park where visitors could also feel free. But we
really had a chance to see how little one needs of "things", and once one
is free from the urge to fill their lives with "things" they are really
free, free to make their own choices without all the shadow voices in the
head giving their opinion to sway their decision. And you don't have to
worry about someone ripping-off your "things". :-) Never locked doors,
never suffered a theft.

And there there are many ways to accomplish that. The main thing is, what
is it that holds one back?
What is of greater value than recognizing one's sovereignty?
What's got a hold on you, Baby? :-)
