My suggestion:
1. Develop a skill people will pay you for
2. Work like a fiend
3. Save every dollar you can
4. Then pay cash for a place to live.
You will still have to earn money for food and to pay R/E taxes.
To my knowledge that's as good as it gets.
That's precisely what your dogs are doing.
Learn from them.

Jstan, that's exactly what I do. I just wish I wasn't paying rent. With the median home price in Cali hovering around $500,000 for a cardboard house with no land, it's pretty discouraging. I bought land but its in Bear Valley near ski area. Good investment, but expensive to build for snowload. I plan to retire there if I can afford it someday. Sold two dogs yesterday. Thanks for the good advice.

Flip Flop, I dont have tattoos. I gave myself a tattoo when I was 13. Used india ink and a sewing needle. It wore off by the time I was a freshman in college. Back in the 70s when everyone wore high socks I could hide that shyt. But my mother saw it when I was wearing flip flops and flipped out. She didnt believe me when I said I did it myself. She was on a witchhunt to find out whole put it on me. Im glad I dont have Van Halen's logo on my calf anymore. As for being a "trailer wannabe," I long for a simpler life. After fifteen years of teaching everything from microbiology to ninth grade English, Im tired of working so hard. I started a very successful 501(c)3 access fund group and teach climbing to kids with ASD. Your presumptions about me are as unfounded as they are ridiculous, hurtful and insensitive. You would probably like my dogs. All my liberal Davis friends do. They are not nearly as predatory as you seem to be. Perhaps you should get an Arian Brotherhood tattoo on your neck "exclusive" Thats what they wear and thats what you are.

chainsaw, while I'm very pro animal adoption and anti breeding, and while I'm very anti-Trump, which I believe you are not, I'm very impressed with your responses throughout this thread. Not your stance on issues, but your respectful tone overall despite the difficult position you put yourself in.

I don't know if FF is liberal or not, and I don't care. Judging by a couple of recent threads, he just seems to hate animals, in a creepy way.

Nope and nope.
I never blame the animals.
It's the irresponsible owners that chap my hide.
1. Wants to live in trailer. Check
2. Irresponsibly breeding fighting dogs. Check
3. Unique tattoo(story, at least). Check
Those Arian dudes are your friends, not mine. I don't tolerate dipshits.
Talk amongst yourselves.
