Many years ago, my dad tried to get approval to build a small horse

Remind him that this idea is so interesting that he'll want to do
it for free, just for the tech factor.

Yes, a new shop and no more working for a living sure do beat
working and a small stall for woodworking. Congrats.

I don't want to be on welfare. I've earned everything I have, and I work
hard. Not at some pussy 40 hour a week job either, for that matter. That
doesn't mean I *enjoy* working. In fact, I *hate* working. So what? Ask
my boss if he has any complaints. He doesn't. I do an *excellent* job,
and I detest every minute of it.

If I can figure out a way to retire at 35, what do you care? All I need to
live a very modest life from here to the end of the road is a lousy million
bucks. That's not a completely unrealistic goal. Maybe one spectacular
invention, a winning lottery ticket, a munificent benefactor who really
likes my art. There are plenty of ways I might retire, or at least go down
to a part time job (like 40 hours a week) by 35 without sucking on the
government tit, and if I come up with something, what business is it of
yours either way what I want to do with my time here on Earth?

Oh, and if I didn't have to work, I'd have no use for a cell phone.

Hell yeah, man, you've got it. THAT'S IT! That's the solution to all my
problems!!

All I gotta do is get a job coaching Virginia Tech's football team. Take
the money and run, and by the *I'm* done with them, they will have the
worst football team in the world again, and all these freaking flapping
football flags will go away.

(At the base of the wall, those flags on the highway above sound like
someone is firing off a machine gun in a canyon every time some SUV studded
with those things sails by at 30-40 mph over the posted speed limit.)

Rob,

If you don't mind me asking what kind of shed are you building? Wood? Steal?
Is it by a local or a national company? What area do you live in?

We've moved to Kentucky recently and I am living a dream. We bought 6 acres
here zoned A-1 mostly all grass with about 200 trees (big and small). We are
building on top of a hill so we've got a 360 degree panaramic view of the
surrounding farms. The property is dirt cheap and there are no code hastles.
I'm a California boy so I do know what you mean by code hastles.

The reason I ask I am looking into a 30 X 50 barn with a 16 X 30 shed
attached. Concrete floor, insulated through out, ventilated, electric,
roughed in plumbing, 3 walk-in doors, 6 windows, 1 - 9 X12 slide up door and
1 - 9 X 12 slide across door. It's metal siding with pole frames. 12 foot
height from concrete to ceiling with wood panels on the walls up to 8 feet.
The 4 feet above the wood is a metal with holes in it to deaden the sound.
The ceiling is metal. It's costing me about $26.00 a sq. ft.

Maybe you wanted to eat, live in a house, put your (if you have any) kids
in/through school, own a car that runs, be able to stuff a buck or two into
a dancers gstring and pay taxes (as a loyal American).
Other than that, why waste time working?

I've thought the same thing. As president of GM, GE, or similar sized
corporations, I'd work just a few months as CEO and the board would realize
I'm incompetent to run such an organization. By then I've made a quick 2 or
3 million and bail out.

Probably more lucrative than the CEO thing, and I don't get anybody else
laid off because of my incompetence.

it depends on where you are. here, you have to have 2.5 acres for the first
horse, and it's 5 horses/acre over that. everyone has their own septic, but
about half are on a shared water system.

Name three printers in colonial America... Few people can name more than
one, Ben Franklin.

The only reason most people can name Ben is that he was able to retire from
active printing in his mid 40's and was able to devote the rest of his life
to things that interested him -- flying kites in the rain, inventing,
diplomacy, and statesmanship.

It's a fair question -- would there have been a U.S. of A. if old B.F. had
not been able to devote the majority of his adult life to doing whatever he
felt like?

Retiring young enough to enrich the lives of others by following one's own
star is (generally) a worthy goal. Best of luck achieving it.

I know a lot of guys like that, actually. We have one at work. My boss's
father. He's right around 80, and working because he has no idea what he'd
do with all his time if he didn't have a job.

I can't imagine, personally. I'd love to retire at 35 and spend my time
puttering at things that could in no way ever hope to pay my bills.

All it takes is $1,000,000... :)

I've been thinking about this, see... All those high paid CEOs earning
millions a year. They have no imagination. If I could get a job like
that, I'd work a year and then retire. I don't need millions of dollars in
