The resources that matter most to a person are time and money.
When you become a nobody-with-nothing, your money goes down but your time goes up.
It's not that the absolute amount of time increases — it's that you can spend your time on what you want, at the timing you want.
I'd like to call this time flexibility.
And this time flexibility can make up for the money you no longer have.
- Side work: You can earn a bit of money here and there. See A Field Manual for the Unaffiliated.
- Off-peak deals: You can get the same things cheaper and better. Stores are empty on weekday afternoons. Gyms sometimes sell day passes for less during these hours. Jjimjilbangs and saunas are empty too, so you can use them as if you'd rented the whole place.
