How to Fund Your Way to the Free State
« on: February 23, 2010, 08:36:35 PM »

If you're like me, you're having a hard time finding a well paying job in NH and don't have enough saved up to make the move to help bring about a freer state.

I heard an awesome podcast at the Liberty Conspiracy recently, featuring Tarrin Lupo. It was about how to earn a living outside of the 'regular' job market (some would consider this Agorism). I'm not going to go through all the points he made but you can listen for yourself if you're interested in creating a more permanent source of income (http://libertyconspiracy.com/ 2-4-10 show). Needless to say it was very inspirational.

So here's my plan for funding my moving to NH. My significant other recently found a BlackBerry Storm 9530 which she lost a while back in the house and I recently won some tickets to the 12hrs of Sebring from FTL - sorry Mark, but I'd much rather move to NH. I hope you can understand. I have placed both the phone and tickets on Ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160405437733&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_1182 & http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160405466567&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_1182).

Proceed from the sales will be used to purchase other products (from garage sales, specialty stores or online deals) which I will be placing on Ebay and  repeat. The goal is to build my earnings to $20K and make the move (one dollar for every FSP first 20K signer). My goal is to do this within a 1 year time frame.

I hope others will join me in doing something similar and share successes and failures. I plan to be up right on time for the 2011 liberty forum.

Thats a great idea.  Currently I'm saving up to make the move myself.  I didn't want to move out there a couple of months ago, but a lot has changed and I am really stoked to do it now.  I'm shooting for July (right after PorcFest), but it may take a bit longer to save up the 15k I want to have before I go...

FTL is having a contest for some swords, valued at a few hundred dollars. All you need to do is sign up to the updates list @ updates.freetalklive.com for a chance to win. They would make great Ebay items. If they sell for $200 or $300, that would give you some good start-up money.

The BB I wrote about above sold for $165 + $5 shipping. I plan to use the entire profit from that sale to buy more items to resell. It's a slow process at first but it will build quickly if you stay consistent and hunt down good deals wherever you can find them.
