I'm less keen on the idea of a campervan, but I know a lot of successful EAs who live with other adult EAs to save money and they find it perfectly comfortable.

Thank you, I found this helpful, especially the parts on staying healthy while trying to go vegan-ish and about what charities to donate to. Also I was wondering why everyone thinks it is so bad to live in a camper van, maybe it is but I don't 100% understand why. I think I would get how it could be said that living with roommates in a relatively cheap apartment would be better versus living alone in a camper van because of the social benefits and not much higher of a cost, but if I lived in a camper van with a roommate versus in an apartment with a roommate I can't really see a huge difference. Also living alone in a van versus an apartment would not be worse on any grounds I could really see, also I think I specifically might be good at the van life because I have been a boy scout for a while and gone on a lot of camping trips, I honestly would be a good person to live in a tent but I wouldn't do that because if I did it in the woods I could get attacked by something and if I was in the city it would be dangerous, but I think a camper van would be safe. Also side note, idrk if it's going to work out the way he imagines it but my younger brother (only about a year younger) wants to live in a camper van when he grows up (for entirely different reasons, he is not an EA, also he might change to decide smth else), so living with him in a camper van (or an apartment) for some time as adults could be a good thing. Just trying to understand why an apartment is considered better that a camper van, ok you didn't really have the most negative reaction to it but others did.

Alright, I will do that; mostly at this point, unless my family is eating together, I make all my own meals, but they aren't meals that require much cooking; I usually make a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast (I literally just mix oats and hot water), or like microwave a can of beans for lunch and have half a jar of peanut butter for dinner. I do have some cooking experience, through oy scouts I learned to make a lot of stuff and before I stopped eating eggs I would sometimes cook them for my family. However, that is useful advice; I will try to learn to cook more stuff that I don't already know how to cook.

post this on Reddit where there are actually a lot of people who will see it, even if it is a less positive response

This is a very interesting comment, I did not even think about this! I will try to do what you say, but I will also do more research on this to make sure that what you say is correct.

Thank you for this comment, I will check those out.

Thank you for the explanation! This clarified a lot of what I was confused about.

Thank you for the idea! I think that I will not use beef as my main protein source, but something like nuts and beans could be good.

I will try to do that, thank you for the idea!

Thank you!

I completely agree with what you are saying, thank you for the comment!
