My man's and my plan exactly: we would put the 10 million towards a fund just to LIVE on, together, caring, assisting, leaving free, occasionally putting our freed minds together around a peaceful midst into which great things might flow.
Ideally, we would build an Earthship now, while we are still (semi) fit. We have the idea for Container conversions in a rustic (read: cheap) but civilised enough place. Where? That remains the question. Portugal? Greece? Croatia? Or closer to German soil? I love my independence and am a pain to live with but I do believe people need people and nothing else but brother/sisterhood will save this planet.
Wish us all well, while I struggle to save a parking spot in my street for the gardeners to put up new fences in my garden - the neighbours find it hard to cooperate (and I have even forgiven them for not wanting to pay their half....
I wish you luck with the container idea :) Sounds as if something can be conversed there.
I actually stole my idea "saving the world by not wanting to save it" from Heinz von Förster, about whom I again started to read a lot recently. He actually got this bunch of people together back then at a University! They had a lab running. And for the time being, some wonderful results came out. Actually all "my friends", the systemics and cybernetics and related to them provided the after world with beautiful stuff. I am not even half as smart or intelligent but the resources I found, I am using to the fullest. I copy everything from those people I can and from which I can test if it works for me. The other things I copy from other rich sources. I am a copy & paster - HaHa!
Quite a surprise reading you here! Thank you for stopping by.
P.S. do you live in that same house? I have images of a horrible heating system :)
