Teenagers?
« on: October 04, 2002, 03:18:39 pm »


I'm currently a college freshman and was wondering if there were any other young adults/teenagers considering moving with their parents or just happening to be posting on the forum.

I should be moving to New Hampshire in about three years. Anyone from around there?

Hey Joe,
   I'm (well a would-be as I am not in school right now) freshman myself. Turned 18 a couple months ago. The project is something I've recently discovered. I've been wanting to move north for some time, (north being VT, NH, ME... I'm in RI) and New Hampshire is of course one of the possibles in the running, and my favorite, for the "Free state." I'd like to buy some rural NH acerage and put up a house. Maybe get an IT job somewhere. But money is really the only issue. The parents aren't really involved as they are of the middle class suburbanite variety. Very conservative as it were.  Being young I don't have much of a financial base established. And certainly not enough resources to go through with my personal "project" right  now. But eventually, hopefully sometime soon.

Well, I'm a newly-joined 19-year-old college sophomore. I don't really have any ties to any particular geographic area, so I'm planning on following the FSP no matter which state ends up being chosen.

I'm confident that I have enough of a variety of skills to make a living wherever I end up...and freedom is much more important to me than luxury. I've been lucky enough to meet some active libertarian activists, and frankly I can't think of any other group of people I'd rather live among.

Hi,
 I'm almost a teenager, at age 12 and a half, does that still count?

Second year computer science student from aberystwyth (wales). I'm currently building a list of places that it would be cool to live in. After university I plan to recky them and make a choice. I'd like to cultivate marijuana, do volunteer work and find a part time job to do with computers (programming, network admin etc.).

I'm seventeen...a high school drop out.  I am not considering moving with the Free State Project.  I am going to see where the No State Project takes me...

I'm 19, a second-year freshman.  The attitudes of the vast majority of the people at my college are ridiculously conservative, and I'm trying to transfer.  I'm trying to find some colleges out there with a more libertarian mindset, but who knows how realistic that is.

At the rate our membership is growing you may be able to the choosen free state.

yup 19 year old sophomore here.     we seem to be more common than I had thought at first.  where are y'all headed for spring break?  if we all went to the same place, it could be pretty cool.  just an idea of course.  I am psyched about the move; I think we are at the perfect age, since we really havent established our own homes yet, its easier to start off in a new place!  Grin

No! I wanted to be the youngest! Smiley Well, as it is I'm 17 and have about 4 months left in high school. Freedom is coming soon! Oh, and just as a question for all you guys talking about how to subsist and such, has anyone considered living off the land? No job, just growing what you eat and maybe mooching a little bit at first for minor stuff (like toothpaste for instance--I mean, how do you get toothpaste without some dead prezzies?) Anyway, it's just idea I've been toying with, and haven't researched much. Need to do that sometime....

I am also a college freshman, but I am at UC Irvine in Southern California and the parents are in San Diego. I really want to go with the FSP- its too bad they can't choose any warm weather states. My vote would be for Wyoming just because its closer and seems to offer the best chance for success. What states would be the easiest to get to big cities? NH? Delaware?
