Advise...What do you have to offer:

This is a small community where many people produce more than they need so there's usually more than enough. This is our local safety net and occasionally we end up with people who try to live on it, like lice.What do you have to offer? What are your skill sets/abilities? What do you have to offer someone to allow them to permit you to live on their property? We're not short of alcoholics, dopers, and party animals, matter of fact we're fairly well stocked. If you're looking for a bolt hole you sound like you're already cross threaded 'cause the nuts here aren't Imperial or Metric. Suggest you visit the place B4 you spend the $400 to end up where you don't want to be.
