There are a lot of annoying things needed that aren't accounted for......like heating and running water and waste drainage. But if you're willing to get creative then anything is possible.

Yup. All you have to do is get lucky and stay healthy

Plenty of places in the world where heat is not necessary. People lived with hand wells for centuries. If you want to trade 8 hours of your day for heat and running water.. Go for it.. Do society's dream, get the new car, bigger TV, thousand dollar cellphone on payments
