He ended up purchasing a tiny island in Florida for $200,000
Tim found the island on Zillow. “It was raw land and not being used as anything, didn’t even have an address,” he recalled. “I ended up knocking on the owner’s door that was selling it and started negotiating pricing from there. I then had 60 days to figure out if I could build a tiny house on there with the city’s permission. And I was able to successfully build a tiny house on a foundation.”

Onnie,
I was talking about that subtile (not really!) product placement/advertisement. Mentioning Netflix to begin with and having NETFLIX perfectly placed on the TV Screen in the photos. Do you think he does sh#t like that for free?
A dude who magically bought a trailer and an island...Just mentioned he might be sponsored. Sorry that you couldn´t connect the dots.

So, let me recap - spoiled brat got kicked out by his parents for being a bible freak and who knows what else, he got $70 000 just laying around for the little trailer, and enough dough for the place to put it on. Well, I guess its fine example to follow...

Hody,
Where did it say he was a bible freak? All I saw was a mention about religions that practiced a minimalist lifestyle.
I am curious about all the money he had for this considering it sounds like he was squatting.

Judi, ya so much hate. I don’t get it. I mean he probably took out loans like most everyone else, so not sure what all the jealousy/bitterness is for. $270k is really cheap for a mortgage, at least where I’m from.

Martin,
... so now in the "low" market to get such mortgage, and I highly doubt bank will mortgage the island, but I digress, even if it is mortgage for $280k-$300k his payment for 33 years would be in the $1500 per months neighborhood, with at least 20% down. So, do the math either he got un-taxable cash flow from somewhere or someone paid for most of it.
