Absolutely! We point that out in all of our videos, especially the first one, in this series (linked below) that homesteading is probably the most romanticized thing out there. We were guilty of it, buying into the notion that it's all unicorns and rainbows. We were suckered with the YouTube videos with their nice music and cinematic footage that made it look like an incredible life to lead. And there is no doubt that it is wonderful, but it's hard as hell too.
We took many many steps to get here and that's why there is a whole series that we are putting out on this topic and they are steadily coming out every Sunday. This Sunday's topic will be covering buying land. The second topic was about getting debt free. It's definitely a process and if you get gung ho about homesteading and within 30 days have bought land, quit your job and plan to be debt free, you're probably going to fail.
I appreciate your comments and advice and it definitely holds true.
