Possessions are their own form of slavery when you think about absolute freedom for example..

IMO, that's still a lot of hassle for not a lot of extra money after you run into the common issues landlords run into. Unless of course you are renting out several income properties and letting a property management company run it for you. However that all comes with big expenses and to get to that point requires lots of debt or being independently wealthy and if you have that kind of money why bother with the hassles, just to fund going off and fucking about... There are much cheaper ways to make money than real estate.
If you can't handle life that's ok man... just embrace it and don't be so devious about it...
