Man Buys Island, lives on it for 50 years, happy and healthy

Star and a flag. I like this guy. Always been attracted to isolated bodies of land. Masses of people end up spoiling everything. And the real trouble is - It's not always masses of people but a spoiler, one jerk in the lot, an unrepentant snag. Why not isolate that one and move on? I would like to live as if ~ The Earth matters. We can all be this guy.

Yea that is the hardest thing, how to pay for it. Must have a good amount of credit savings to pay for years of internet.

Or this...

Day-trippers are allowed to visit from Mahe for £10 each.

Just wondering if this island was within the proximity
of the "double flash" incident. (israeli nuclear test)
. . . maybe that's why it was not inhabited in the first place

Satellite internet. With your solar setup you could have the internet as well.

Except that a big part of the reason why he looks 50 at 86, in addition to good food and exercise, is the fact that he doesn't have cortisol and adrenaline constantly flooding his system, due to getting his daily dose of apocalyptic doom porn, here on ATS.

True story.

The second image in which the man is sitting looks photoshopped. Looks like originally he is sitting on some kind of rock but was cut out of it and placed on a beach. Also the shadows the cut. Not trying to find any conspiracy here, just what I observed.

I am sure there are enough woman out there willing to share this experience. Get a cute Thai girl and live happily ever after

What an inspiration, thanks! What a way to leave society behind and simply live life to the fullest. No degrees, no status, no money, no commercials around washing his brain. No products of society to infect him with their stress, anger, and life full of worries.

Freedom.

I wish we could all do that and start living the way we should.

Reminds me of the 'Naked Island Guy' www.huffingtonpost.com...

You can do it.We all can do it. Anybody ever hear of the Fort Fisher Hermit?

He lived in an old naval gun bunker left over from WWII along the Carolina Coast at Fort Fisher. Just him and his dog.

Or you could drop out and live up along the Appalachian Trail or out in Montana aka Ted K style.

You can choose how you live by choosing how much you want to give up or the lifestyle you choose. Mother Earth News was built on independent. alternative, self reliant lifestyles.

Now go do it... we did.

First things first, where is the money coming from the buy the island, and all the 'stuff'?

If he lived with a woman he may have been the last hope for humanity.

I can do without alot of my modern conveniences but I will always want to keep my firearms since I love shooting and they keep me safe.

Everyone on ATS should chip in a fraction each and buy our own island to get out of this corporate dictatorship! One of the most overheard statements in our little new country would be "Hey, is that a UFO?!?!"

Which mod would we elect to be our president?

I always was curious. If he had a bad tooth, or broken rib(something he can not fix single handedly, then what happens? he suffers to death? nice way to live anyway. If I would not be heliophobic, this would be my dream way of living without the Man

He isn't the only person on the island, and it sounds like people visit there often....there's even a restaraunt on the island....
