Might not be very important right now but in the future, the ability to grow food in a very labor saving way, like this, could be a very important skill to have. So just like saving money, right now I’m building a knowledge base that could make my life much more comfortable in the future.

    +Vention1MGTOW Did you know the song "Macarena" was about a latina woman named Macarena who is unhappy with her boyfriend, so she cheats on him with 2 of his friends while he's trying to join the army?

    The deck looks great Vent!  Fantastic job you did there…  Next project on deck-  Scrape and paint garage side entry door.  (Maybe even hang a new one)  Don't know if that damage can be corrected…  Lol.  All in due time Vent…  All in due time…

    Always good to build your skills.  A lot of cool things this year…I've been interested in that freezer/fridge conversion kit, it just seems like a smart way to go especially if at some point you have to generate all of your own power.

    On more of a MGTOW women not being equal note.  I had a pretty exasperating week.  My broadband ISP provider jacked up my bill by 50% 3 weeks ago so I shopped around and decided to give DSL a try.  After having it installed I was getting about a 1/4 of a mbps, far too slow.  I called tech support and they said the first appointment available was on Tuesday and that I should be available from 8am to 5pm.  So after freeing up my day and waiting all that day I got a call about 2 minutes to 5pm from the FEMALE tech telling me that she couldn't get to me today.  I said "fine, what time tomorrow?"  She said she didn't know but sometime between 8 and 5pm again.  After not hearing a thing from her all day I called her at 5:15pm and surprise she couldn't get to me again.  Then I don't hear from her all day Thursday so I call tech support on Friday and they tell me that a tech is already scheduled to be out by 5pm.  Surprise, surprise she doesn't show up again and now won't answer her phone.  I sign back up online with my former broadband ISP which is now offering my old rate and they are scheduled to come out today (Saturday) between 1pm and 2pm.  I get a knock on my door at 1:15pm and it's a  MALE tech from the DSL provider ready to fix my line and get me a solid 1.6mbps which I would be more than happy with at the price they charge, if it already wasn't too late for them.  I explained to him what happened with the female tech that I was waiting for all week and his shoulders just slumped.  He told me that I wasn't the only customer that had cancelled today because of her pulling the same crap on them.  The sad thing is, you know she won't be fired for this but a man sure would have been.  I just don't like dealing with women for most things anymore.  That being said I'm always delighted to come across a competent woman who's great at her job and really puts forth that extra effort…I've got a great female doctor and dentist that both are fantastic.  But what a pain this week dealing with this gal!

    chickens in a pen living over top of a talapia pond that also grows plants (edible for you and the chickens, pond grown plants or hydroponics with a pump) a small pool is able to give you 100lbs of fish in a cycle(plus the eggs and the veggies)
    look on this page:http://www.motherearthnews.com/homesteading-and-livestock/backyard-fish-farming-zmaz06amzwar.aspx?PageId=2

    i have seen people bury these ponds in the ground and use hot tub covers during winter (no heating required) for the plants just install a "sun tube" to get the light down there.
    great video as always vent

    oh also look into "chicken tractor" for a pen for your chickens to fert your garden on the move!

    Thanks Vention. Lots of useful information. Have you looked into the solution for energy if the grid goes down? Solar panels, batteries, generators, etc. Tesla is coming out with the Powerwall battery that might be the answer, but information on it and local availability is scarce.

    Yeah. Good luck seizing my money or even knowing it's there. I plan to go dark with a good deal of my income and savings. I do have a pension if it doesn't go bankrupt but other than that my income is going to be hard to track. Bitcoins, precious metals and foreign precious metals vaulting companies, that sort of thing. I plan to earn a side income from dark markets like Open Bazaar when they have their first stable release (probably late this year). And money earned in that way is almost impossible for the feds to track.

    I was just thinking of you, Vention.  I was in a library reading TIME magazine, the edition for August 3, 2015.  It talks about a terrible American crisis.  WOMEN are not getting enough Social Security money.  The fact that they dumped all those guys, rode the c**k carousel, and said that a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle is coming back at them.  All the B.S., low paid jobs they got into also.  

    One solution proposed is from the Republican traditionalists:  Terminating the Social Security program as we know it and replacing it with "means testing"  so all the women get our money. People like you who save, of course, do not deserve Social Security, and you oppress women by your shorter lifespan.
