    Living Simply in a Dumpster



    One professor left his home for a 36-square-foot open-air box, and he is happier for it.

    How much does a person really need?



    _____



    Tucked behind the women’s residence halls in a back corner of Huston-Tillotson University’s campus in Austin, Texas, sits a green dumpster. Were it not for the sliding pitched roof and weather station perched on top, a reasonable person might dismiss the box as “just another dumpster”—providing this person did not encounter the dean of the University College Jeff Wilson living inside....

    Hey tyde, don't you find it a little tight in there with you and your mutt

    I suppose the benefit would be that you wouldn't need an enormous TV in there

    becoming more and more of a fan of minimalism in general

    living within your means...not to excess

    love the Alaska survival shows where people are completely self sufficient...hunting for their own food. bartering with neighbors for goods

    seems like a much more rewarding lifestyle

    as opposed to constantly chasing a buck and neck deep in the rat race

    I agree about living within your means. However most people that say this are dead broke and can't afford a $100 a month apt. When people start making these kinda of comments they tend to be losers that would die within minutes of trying to survive in Alaska.
    I'm not trying to hate but stating facts.

    LMAO. That is exactly what a broke ass loser would say..... "I'm a minimalist". That ranks right up there with "I didn't get evicted, I just like to travel".

    I was at a bar downtown last night and there was a "minimalist" outside begging for spare change.

    I believe in living within my means without excess, too. I'm just glad that my means allows me to live in a crime free area, with creature comforts, surrounded by people that speak English. I liked a little adventure between the ages of 18-25, but I couldn't live like Tyde does anymore. More power to you if you can.
