I’ve been moving towards going Galt since October of 2008. I’m there regarding spending. We went from a five bedroom house in the Seattle suburbs to a 13 acre farm in central Kentucky. One fifth the value and a fraction of the real estate taxes (a few hundred a year rather than over $500 a month). And we are big on growing our own beef and a large garden - and entertaining ourselves with walks, hunting, fishing, bike rides, etc.
Now, If I could just get laid off, I’d be fully “galt” regarding income as well. :)
Going “Galt”
I like it.
The less you have to depend on the government the better. And the less you pay in taxes the less of a hold they have on you.
