@w96k and growing your own food... That's a dream too. I mean growing food for real for the whole year for a single grown man is really a lot of work. Even more for the family. You can grow only basics: potato + garlic, tomato, onion etc. And they are usually cheap
You'll still buy meat, fish, bananas, berries, mushrooms. milk, cheese etc. That's tasty and more expensive than the basics
