(Disclaimer: Slightly off-topic. Also, it&#x27;s not my intention to belittle their lifestyle. I hope I don&#x27;t come across that way.)<p>Some of the things they need even in this disconnected lifestyle - like the mobile home, laptops, books, solar panels, batteries and even the slippers have to be made by someone doing a 9-5 job somewhere. The idea of civilization to me is to take advantage of these specialists who are really good at doing or manufacturing some of the things I need and in turn I become a specialist in something (probably one thing) which I contribute back to the society - it&#x27;s a barter. That I don&#x27;t have to do all the things I need to do to survive, seems efficient and effective. Also, not all of the jobs are going to be able to afford this &quot;luxury&quot;.
