The BFP Compound: Family Land
Let's pretend that Jack and I finally just won the Arkansas Powerball for $173 million.
After taxes, that's about $100 million left over. Let's pretend that we're building a compound on about 400 acres just north of where we currently live. Would you want to live on a BFP compound? What skills can you contribute? Would you want to do community meals every night in the "Mess Hall"? Would people still need to pay something into the system like rent, even if it was only nominal? Do you think you'd get tired of living with family all year long? What pro's and con's can you see to this idea? What input do you have? Let's speak it into the Universe!

Count me in
I would like it to be a BFP community compound I have cooking and baking skills I'm a hard worker and would help in the garden I know will be created I think if a person works FT on the compound, then no rent If one chooses to work outside of it, then yes, rent Bills still need to get paid after the purchase price of said compound In order to survive for years to come, we'd have to sell our wares A garden bounty after we take only what we'll use, can be sold to restaurants Same goes for fresh eggs and milk I mean, if we're going to do this right, we need some farm animals to sustain us I think sitting down as a family and sharing a meal with conversation will be important to the longevity of the compound I also think that as long as I have my own bedroom (my space) I'd never get tired of living as a unit BTW, just make sure you put in plenty of bathrooms because we're going to need them Oh and I'm thinking group health insurance will be mighty low once the Planet peeps start arriving to settle in Perhaps we may even snag us a doctor and a nurse or 3 to live on this compound Oh and the family that plays in the dirt together, stays together The only con I see would be having to show someone of the premises because they don't want to pull their own weight

See, I love the idea of farm animals! Fresh eggs!
I keep envisioning a "game night" or something where we get together in an activity hall or a gym or something and play poker, board games, have karaoke, etc. Cause I'm cheesy like that!

:| it feels like you are trying to mine your homos?
Are we all living in the same houses?
Will we have guns? Horses? What if we haz kids? Will cats be roaming all over?

Hmmm, guns? I think it's a good idea if I "do not" own one wouldn't you agree Snowy?? Dusa?? Jack??
Our cats must be with us and, as an fyi...they are trained to be on leashes. Therefore, if cats are off limits, then we will not be moving to the compound. Nobody puts "Bossy and Pippi in the corner"! (said in my best Patrick Swayze accent from "Dirty Dancing") Wait, lemme put my Boston spin on that... "Nobody puts Bossy & Pippi in the corner you muthafuckas"!! *Ahem* that's a lot better... |

I can handle your farm part- hens, garden, whatever. I would love it but I would definitely want some privacy. Its nice have a social center then everything spread out. Weekly pot lucks/meals but a community kitchen for those who always wanted to share or couldnt cook

I would love to have a workshop where I can build things and keep my tools. I would be able to team up with some of the other handy folks from here and build things/fix things/ and remodel things. I could also use my new degree to design houses/cottages to suit the residents. (using the sustainable design that I have been studying)
Coach Stappie would LOVE to get some kickball games going on a Saturday afternoon! How fun would that be?!

Honestly, though, I don't think communal life is for me. I love y'all, but I know my limits. We'll come visit!

Ohhhhhhhh *raises hand.
Count me in. I've always loved the idea of living in a compound anyway. All inclusive. I volunteer to start the hospital wing up. We have a few more nurses on this site that will help i'm sure. I'll find a doc to visit a couple times a week and can video chat when needed. There are a few that owe me We can give flu vaccines, fix booboos, treat resp problems and the like. Anything major we can transport you outta there by helicopter. We can take turns being oncall afterhours. We can have a small pharmacy with simple antibiotics, diabetic supplies and cold treatments. Oh and don't forget the vitamins!!! Sharing bathrooms would be a pain. I vote for everyone having a room that includes a bathroom and shower. Standing in line to teetee or brush my teeth is not my cuppa.

I'm thinking with 400 acres and builders, we could have houses or apartment buildings or just rooms
I suppose if you're paying rent, it'll be what you can afford Kids should be allowed as well as any animal you may already have I even like the idea of having the yearly reunions on the compound for those that don't want to live there Renting rooms out for this reunion at great prices should bring many besides everyone will be so envious, they'll want to see the place Oh and June, I don't care where the place is built as long as we're all in it together As for the too much togetherness...that's what vacations are for
