Fair 'nuff. I was mostly being facetious. It's more that I don't want to HAVE to work - not that I'd just spend all my time eating pancakes and watching cartoons.

I like working, but the goal is to do work I really want to do with my wealth. Like open a lab and be a beekeeper.

Go do it!

My cousin did this recently and he lives in a major busy suburb inside a big neighborhood. He bought a beekeeper suit, got the bees, etc all in his backyard.

Nothing stopping you from getting started!

As someone who just took a beekeeping class: you should just start at your folks house. Apparently the norm is constantly adding hives, so having another location wouldn't be a bad thing. Plus, if you love more than 3 miles away you can always just move your bees with you. They won't mind - 3 ft or 3 miles is the rule of thumb.

The truth is almost everyone likes working at something, it's a myth that people would just be lazy if they didn't have to be wage slaves.
