Earthbag houses are the solution to the neet problem. They are incredibly cheap to build, and if you live in a country with affordable land your set. It was Star Wars that got me thinking along these lines. If you remember when the Jedi where defeated Yoda went to live in a mudhut on the swamp planet. I think George Lucas was trying to send us a msg, that when zog fully prices us out of living space that mudhuts will be a good option.
