I agree you could live on the $540 a month for food. But, how does one go about the room, obviously a cell phone bill with tethering (or leeching wifi?) Because she makes 100% of her income blogging from a macbook that costs more than 3 months of her food budget.
I like the concept, but it's just so obvious there is more behind their income. The other guy vacations to hawaii to surf, but doesn't mention what he does for income.
- EliRivers 13y agoThe other guy vacations to hawaii to surf, but doesn't mention what he does for income. The sentence immediately following the mention of Hawaii states Price’s version of the simple life costs $5,000 a year, which he earns from publishing a wilderness zine and doing odd jobs around Joseph, his eastern Oregon town.
- ShirtlessRod 13y agoAssuming he is flying to Hawaii, that would set him back at least $600. That's 12% of his yearly budget. Not to mention the fact that actually living in Hawaii is not cheap, and the article said he does this all winter.

- phaemon 13y agoReally? Is he lying about his spending or is he lying about his income from savings & investments?
- prawn 13y agoWhy is the cost of the MacBook relevant at all? She could've had this previously, been given it, or received it second hand.
