This could even be applied to how we currently view our more recent history of "cowboys" and the "wild" west. Imagine the freedom those men had!

  same as you can have, just stand up and walk away from treadmill... oh wait, cash, security, not dying from appendicitis and whatnot is so comfortable, right? :)

    /rant You can walk away from the treadmill.......and still have cash, security, and not die from a healthcare issue. Live below your means, save, invest, and then move somewhere nice but with a lower cost of living (Costa Rica, Panama, and Uruguay are my short list). This will not happen if you live somewhere paying $3K/month for a studio though ;)

      ... you can get off the treadmill. Just run faster that's the ticket. You can also just get off. Lower your spending and you don't need to work a full time job 48 weeks a year. ex: If you want to live in a cabin in the woods, the forst service pays some people to watch for fires in some really remote areas.
