Hello , I am from Borneo Island, East Malaysia.
Here basically I powered down for 2 years already. Sell my turbocharger, sports suspension, in car entertainment devices, leather seats, sports rims, rotating plate numbers,bla,bla. A few month ago I sell off the car with the modded engine inside. It took almost 1.5 years to kick my addiction to fast car.
Now I am using a basic small car that get 33 miles per US galloon that used 1600cc engine. It give the same kicked as the previous car as it has the same power to weight ratio. At same time, use bicycle more and more. The best thing is my skin disease go away and I seem healthier. Well happy peak oil until hyper inflation sweep across the land.
At least I know how to grow vegetable now. The tips are 3R
Reduce,Reuse,Recycle. I am in Phase 2 now. Try to reuse anything.
The other tips are
1. No mainstream TV
2. No mainstream radio
3. No mainstream newspaper
4. No industrial drugs. (I have not eating those thing since 10years ago. Ok 2 years ago I popped 2 Panadols)
5. No soft drinks
6. No junk food
7. No alchohol (Medical service is going to privatised soon)
8. No SUV
9. No airline.
10.Use bicycle more
11. Grow your own vegetable in container if live in apartments.
I can live in Stone Age way of live except I missed internet and car dearly. Hey man I am living in 3rd World country so it is easier for us poor bastards here. I plan to push the car into the sea when the the right time has arrived
Today I recycled some Sarawak election banner to made curtains. The curtain looked like shit as my sewing skill almost none. Iam thinking of using superglue to stuck it on windows frame.

When all the rivers run dry, all the forests have been cleared, all the food has been eaten, tell me the value of your money
