You could buy a couple acres for $10k and put a well it for about the same or less. Earthbag house comes out to less than $10/sqft, assuming the finishes are stuff you salvaged/recycled/diy. Graywater to French drains, poo water to lagoon or dehydrator or incinerator instead of overpriced septic system. 1/8 of an acre can provide 100% of your annual calorie needs. Wood for heat in the winter, alcohol stove for cooking. Your probably going to be 45 minutes drive from the nearest Walmart.
I'm looking for something a little more comfy. Obviously there's got to be a sweet spot between billionaire self contained luxury island and the first one.
Write down what you want then start looking how much it costs or what is involved in implementing it. There might be ways to trim the fat, you can always add on to your larpstead over time. Buy old billboard vinyl and rip some 2x6's into lathe to make a 14' yurt for $1,000, roof poles will be young trees you thin from the property.
