    It can be done alone, as Ted Kazinsky did for years, but most of us cannot as we lack the education and skills needed.

      Kazinsky didn’t live off the grid. He worked as a teacher from time to time, and received financial support from his father.

      I don’t know this guy, but even Superman needs a backup plan in case he gets sick, and infected wound or ruins his ankle by tripping over something. Living off grid alone is just one misstep away from catastrophe.
