Well it seems like it’s inevitable now, I will be fired from my job and excluded from society in the very short term. With this revelation I figured I should start making plans for the next stage of my life.
I have a family with young children (all under 10) and am the breadwinner of the household so being fired will have a very negative effect on our financial security. My career and experience is fairly specific to one industry so my hopes of replacing my income with something similar is very very slim.
As a Canadian there isn’t anywhere to move to that would be any less insane, so would it be worth it to liquidate everything, buy an RV or Truck & trailer and hit the vagabond lifestyle, homeschooling the children and living off my accumulated retirement funds and cash from the liquidation?
The ideal plan would be to cross the border and head south for 6 months, then return and stay at various family’s for the other 6. I would pick up random jobs when back in Canada to try and find the 6 months down south.
I’m really not wanting this to be our life as things are really comfortable, but it’s the only thing I can think of where we can live without accepting the “vaccine” into our lives. I do not consent and I will not compromise because if I do this, they have me forever. I want to be a strong influence on my children and show them that you always have a choice, and sometimes the right choice is the hardest but we are in control of what goes into our bodies not the government.
Let me know what you guys think, am I insane and taking this way to far or is this feasible?
My personal perspective on this.
I feel the RV life will offer enough variety when necessary and change of scenery when necessary.
I was challenged when I was a very new parent as to why I couldn’t take my family across the world and teach them whatever educational requirements were, but in addition to that the lessons you learn from a balanced lifestyle of various culture. This has never left me and I’m starting to feel this might be a solution, for now.
That's all fine: this is all personal decision stuff. There are no "right" and "wrong" answers, only trade-offs.
The trade-off to the decision you're talking about is that you are not going to be any more independent from the society you will shortly be "excluded" from than you currently are. So if for example Canada mandates vaccine passports for all grocery stores, and you are still dependent on grocery stores for food; you don't get to eat as long as you're in Canada. So if this is something you are worried about (and it seems like you are otherwise you wouldn't have made this post) then it would seem like a good idea to know how you are going to solve that problem within the constraints of your RV lifestyle.
First and foremost I appreciate this discussion.
Secondly my plan is not a fully long term plan, more of a get the means of mobility into place before shit really hits the fan. That way we are not tied into any one situation regardless of political situation.
My thought behind this is if we are mobile we could start in our current community (one of the freest in the country), and when restrictions become too overwhelming migrate south.
From what I’ve been hearing and researching there are “pockets of resistance” in the USA that I’d rather investigate, coupled with Mexico.
If we liquidate I have no issues living on just that for the next couple of decades, and if I make not a dollar more well that’s on me because I’ve provided for my children until adulthood and at that point my wife and I can figure it out in our own.
