If I did it someday I wouldn't be thinking about making money, just being self-sufficient and growing enough food for me and my family. If I could sell some that's great but that's not the objective.

Where will you get clothing, gas, spare parts, school supplies, internet/phone connection, healthcare? There's more to self-sufficiency than eating.

My guess would be to be independently wealthy at that point.
