The guy in the example (outdoorboys on YouTube) made enough money with his law firm to be able to afford these "survival trips" and travel to remote beautiful places for his channel. Nothing against him, I like the guy, but bad example. I'd like to see a real example of a guy with a family living innawoods.

How’s that a bad example. Being successful enough to do whatever you feel like is a good thing.

This implies the 3rd option is to live off the land, which this guy is not an example of, he only does it for demonstration purposes, he could be considered just as fake as the other two.

How does living off the land solve anything?

You see what’s happening to the white farmers in South Africa?

What’s more effective in fighting the system? A guy with a successful law firm and a lot of money? Or a guy that grows vegetables?

I'm talking about the point of this image, what you're talking about isn't being illustrated here.

You’re saying the top guy is a bad role model, I’m saying he is a good one.

Most people will never get rich. Something more accessible would make a better example.

> Most people will never get rich.

Regardless, everyone must strive for greatness in one way or another.

No point striving for something I'd never have.

You have but one life to live.

And you wish to dwell in mediocrity, to choose it willingly?

With that mentality, you’ll never have it… yes.

I've been following a guy named Nate Petroski for a few years and he's been slowly building a homestead mostly by himself, he does have a wife, no kids yet though that he's shown.

Yeap, you are correct. This guy lives behind a camera. Not something I would teach young children to embody. Not a good example.
