I bought land with this mentality. Permanently reducing my costs and investing in off-grid infrastructure to make retirement cheaper.

I think it’s also the culture of seeing real estate as an investment. People buy houses planning on selling after they’ve lived there. I personally don’t think I can tolerate the risk of using equity as leverage for paid off land, because then there’s a risk the bank will take it. I’d rather leverage things I can live without if the bank takes it for whatever reason.

I’m in tech and live off grid, best of both worlds
