We Moved Our Family of 6 to 5 Acres in Florida. Here's the Real Reason Why

We literally just moved our family of six from Georgia to Florida, which for a lot of people doesn't sound like a big move because it's only one state away, but we went to South Florida. So it was like eight and a half hour move. But we jumped on a house with five acres and pond, and we're actually buying the adjacent 10 acres, the lady that lives in front of us. So our house just sits off the road, which I love because we're not right off a busy intersection. She's looking to sell her house the next couple of years, so we want to pick that up and kind of have that family homestead compound so all of our kids could have houses here if they wanted to one day. And so we're getting into the well water, solar powered as much as we possibly can, having chickens, growing a garden, getting cows. I told my wife, I don't have a tractor yet, so I'd really like to just get some goats, fence it in real well, get some goats, let them take care of the back 40, because they'll eat pretty much anything. But I do, I think homesteading is a huge piece to what people want to accomplish. I think it's about getting back to how I say it's getting back to how God wanted us to live. It's just living off the land, and it's amazing when you see the abundance that is in nature, right? Because you see, it's even, we're looking at our gardens, literally this morning, my wife's gardening all morning, and we're seeing that all these plants we had last year, we've got new little tomatoes popping up and basil plants popping up, and the earth wants to feed you, it wants to create food for you in abundance, especially when you're doing it small scale and you can have control over your soil, your seeds, and everything. It's just great, and we had goats, we got rid of them because we didn't have the right property for goats and kind of how we had them, but goats are just like, there you go, there's God's lawn mower, right? If you've got a field that's full of, doesn't matter, poison ivy or thorny bushes or whatever it is, between goats and pigs, they will create a beautiful forest floor for you. They'll clear an entire field, and so, yeah, we don't have the land for cows, but maybe we'll get pigs in the future, and we've got chickens. We actually just hatched another 10 little baby chicks, so we've got a mother running around with little baby chickens, and it's great. One thing that you've got that I'm really jealous of is a spring-fed pond. That's the thing that, you know, we're on well water. It's actually really good quality well water, but having access to a pond, let alone a spring-fed pond, especially in Florida, right, where you do get droughts down there and everything, that's liquid gold coming right out of the ground. Oh, man, we're in the middle of a drought right now in the Braden, Sarasota area, and our pond has not receded hardly at all, and so I'll be driving by some man-made ponds, you know, and you can just see the water level dip, dip, dip, largest out, and it's actually nicely stocked. The kids, my oldest has been, I've taken them fishing a couple times, but now all the kids love to go fishing, and so they all have, like, the little Mickey Mouse rod and reel. They'll throw it out there and catch a fish, and they'll run up to my office window and be like, dad, dad, come help me take it off, because, you know, they're little, they don't know how to do all that yet, and so my 10-year-old's helping teach them how to do it, too, and to me, it's that experience. It's getting kids off TV screens, getting out into nature, learning these skills that, growing up in the 80s and early 90s, we got to experience, and so we're loving it. We're absolutely loving it. Well, it's also good, because, like, there's a lot of fun in it, and there's a lot of joy, but the reality is, if things go sideways, you've got resilience, and I think that's one of the key points, is that, you know, we've got, we've got buckets and buckets of, you know, stored food that we haven't touched for, you know, since we've kind of put them together five years ago, but if we need them, we have them, right? If we need seeds, we've got a whole seed vault that my wife put together. We have them. I think that's a big part of it, is that, I mean, I, you know, kind of my own perspective is I do think that we're living really in kind of what you call the days of Noah. I mean, we're living in a time where I think that the blackness that's kind of covered the earth is dense, and it's real. I think people can sense it, and I think that there's a lot of plans to, you know, whether it's create, you know, man, you know, kind of create artificial famine, to create, you know, financial collapse, you know, to usher people into some sort of, you know, universal basic income or some sort of digital currency. These are all real threats, and it's, I think, for a lot of Americans, there's this normalcy bias that, well, it's always been this way, so it always will be this way, and I think that that's something that has been forgotten, because really, you know, my great-grandmother, she lived through the Great Depression, and she's long past now, but I remember talking to her when I was a kid, and she was explaining, you know, how she lived, and when we visited, she always had a root cellar full of vegetables. She had a huge garden. She knew how to fish. She knew how to hunt, and these were his basic skills, but she wouldn't have looked at that and said, I'm a prepper, right? That was just how they lived, you know, people, you know, we, America used to be an country where you had farms, small farms everywhere, but now we've become really vulnerable. If you could go back in time and buy oil before the world relied on it, would you? Of course you would. Anyone would. So why aren't you buying silver right now? You see, the people who recognized oil early didn't just make money. They got ahead of one of the biggest economic shifts in history, and today, a similar opportunity is unfolding with silver because silver is a lot more than just a precious metal. It's a critical resource used in solar panels, electric vehicles, defense systems, AI infrastructure, and even these massive data centers that are powering our digital world and the surveillance grid. So while demand keeps growing, it's actually still affordable enough that the average American can start accumulating it right now, and that's why investors are turning to silver to protect against inflation and own one of the world's most important strategic resources. Don't be the person who looks back in 10 years and says, I saw it coming, but I just didn't act. I'm sorry. So visit goldwithseth.com and learn just how easy it is to own physical silver.
