Post-9/11 Realization and the Move to New Mexico

The decision to stop making life choices based on money was solidified after witnessing the collapse of the World Trade Center in 2001. This realization led to a relocation from New York City to rural New Mexico, where the focus shifted to building shelter and generating power. The transition is described as a process of "upcycling the nervous system" to adapt from a high-cost, low-time environment to a low-cost, high-time lifestyle.
