Tiny Houses.
>>>> psshhh.
I have a tiny house. It’s called an RV. It’s 8 x 19 for about 152 square feet. I pull it with my SUV.
Would I want to live in it full time? Nope.
Would I pay 30 to 60 to even 90 thousand bucks (or more) for a well built Tiny House? Hell No.
Kind of like living in a camper?
My local state park offers cabins in the same size range for much less each night.
>> more businesses are letting the curious try out tiny living.
Or, you could sign up for a few years with your Uncle’s submarine service.
That’s how I figured out that “tiny living” is not my cup of tea. And it didn’t cost me a dime! :-)
>> Advocates tout the environmental and financial perks of tiny living.
Al Gore touts it for the masses. Of course, he practices what he preaches in his tiny 20,000 square foot mansion. And that’s just ONE of his “tiny houses”.
They’re kinda far apart so he has to use a tiny jet to get to and fro. A tiny Suburban takes him to and from the airport.
Enviros are such chumps.
There have been a number of “tiny house” motels all up rt 16 in NH for decades. They go back to the 50’s, I think, and are usually called “cozy cabins” or some such slightly less trendy names. When I was 8 my family stayed in one out of desperation because we couldn’t find a normal hotel room, lol. It was cold!
My home is relatively small. 2400 square foot for 6 people. Not a mansion at all. In Maryland our home was about 3200 square foot. What can you do? My sister’s home is 6800 square foot but it is in Indiana which is affordable to have a house that size.
The only problem is that my gun safe would take up half the living room.
Buy a fricken trailer instead.
They spend thousands upon thousands upon thousands for "cute", but in the end it is still too small and impracticable. A perfect metaphor for our family hating, child hating, narcissistic society.
Here’s some even tinier houses if 160 sq ft is too big:
