Challenge of dependency?

[ohioman56]

if you were offered for example $15,000 and given a landline for phone service and a answering machine, could you survive not depending on your phone or computer or social media for 1 month (be honest) without help?

LOL! I don't own a cellphone and I already use a landline and answering machine. I've lived that way my whole life. Even if you took away internet I could live happily. I didn't have that until about 10 years ago. I'd easily take the money, go off-grid and live like that for the rest of my life, which is what I'm planning to do anyway. Life is a lot easier to live when you love nature and you're not dependent on an electronic life to be happy.

My work entirely depends on my internet connection, phone and computer lol

But after work, I'm good without the internet/phone. I use the computer for writing so... no... I wouldn't give it up...
