I have an idea how I could work self employed and quite possibly making a fortune. If I don't get too many contracts I have plan B and C and D for money but they would not be as effective but still.

I ideally plan to move to ultimate forgotten countryside where time is in stasis, buy cheap land (because there is no youth born anymore at 1.0 tfr, all remaining youth flocks to cities, and old gramps are gonna start dying in the countryside very soon with their kids in cities just selling it to whomever). I want it to be mostly isolated but I also want a big city in proximity like an half to an hour of driving.

I would ideally want to buy a property with some creek and make it an electricity source myself, I will manage legal stuff if it happened to be an obstacle.
I would build one heated brick house and fortify it, built in a way specifically to prevent arsens and lock windows if they get broken. Seeking at least 200 square meters of a heated fortress above ground level + basement for food, coal and item storage. I would not go to cities often but I would buy in bulk whenever I do go there, and buying in bulk is much cheaper, what a win. I would stockpile weapons and military type of equipment, I would get lots of rice for tough times or a siege (because if stored correctly rice does not really spoil at all)

I would build one separate building beside my fortified house. Not heated, tightly locked and I need it to shield stuff from moisture because it would be my workshop with expensive equipment and deadly objects.
Like any mature chemist - I don't clean my equipment very well and simply touching a stain had I spilled something could result in frying neural system and death!
Like any mature electrician - my high voltage towers would have no fence around it, not a sign of high voltage, not even a diode whether its on or not!
I would do everything cool in there. So it would be locked hard. I wonder how much cool things I would build there. My ultimate favorite time wasting method is fucking around in a lab.

I think I will manage a money source to afford it all if I work hard and I don't get caught. Bigger problem is to launder it without raising suspicion. I need initial stacks of money to start it all.

If I manage all of the above I would look for a wife and breed like crazy having space and money for lots of kids. She could stay at home and free me from babies crying because I hate that sound so much until they are not annoying and able to learn and work at like 6 or 7. If no school is found in proximity then they would be homeschooled. I would aim for like 10 kids. Education years 1-12 are not real education anyway and just passing grades is sufficient and I would not ask kids to do more than bare minimum. I would not teach them much in terms of mandatory education program besides barely passing since it is a waste of time and motivation which I can attest. Instead I would teach engineering to the max as realistically only engineering, medicine and fraud jobs (like politics, pals of politicians or law related) can lead to success and independence in life.

I would build a loyalty and a sense of national separation between the family and the rest of the country so that they do not switch sides and sell out the family to the outside under no circumstances. I wish for my family to be my best job partners. I hope we could manage to build a bigger network once kids are mentally able to spread the influence and fame of the family like hosting festivals at our cost, giving out free education at uni level to anyone, eventually giving jobs and so on gaining an insight of who is an honest worker, test loyalty of people to pick favorites to indoctrinate, and finding business contacts with other clans.

At tfr of 1.0 people have one kid on average while I would have much much more. Lots of loyal kids is the best investment of our times. Like my 10 kids marrying off to the only kids of opposing families would build up so much wealth simply by inheritance from spouses of kids, spouses who get inheritance from 4 gramps and 2 parents - that is a lot - and that times 10. I hope I manage to instill loyalty to the family so well that my kids themselves volunteer to convert their spouses into loyal subjects of the family and continue the job Fujiwara style. Sons would manage it easy, but I would need husbands of daughers to submit and I would probably have to do it myself or cut them off from the family if I fail. It is not wise to leave door open to possible traitors, so its best to kick them out.
I think it is realistic that my family could gain enough of influence to infiltrate or overthrow the state for the benefit of the family. It will be all so much easier because people would have at most one successor as the head of the family each generation alive in the form of their sole kid while I would have lots of backups and if all kids are loyal I am the king and they are princes and princesses ruling according to their hierachy.

It is sad that family has no meaning nowadays and nobody has ambitious goals. My gramps were honest, happy, ambitious and tighly knit, but they had no opportunity for a lot of things and despite everything turned out very well for their very bad situation. I wish to do it for them. Parents were more peasant minded - having a belief that education leads to a good job and did not mention much win besides a house and a car - but there is more to this world! There are immaterial things that are worth it. Low tier ambition is material, high tier is material + larping as a separate world, a colony, an independent and self sufficient entity that needs nobody else to be happy and prosper.

The biggest unknown is whether I get myself a wife who is ok with it all and whether she would be loyal. Time will tell, but my motivation to work is here. If everything goes well I would hire any heyurizen in need of a job, first for a trial and extend it indefinitely if he took my last name and swore loyalty. For now I am enjoying myself on teh HEYURI!!!!!
