Yes, I’m a hermit. I have no smart devices, an old fashioned princess phone so I can get internet, pay all my monthly bills via snail mail. I have a rooftop antenna but if it’s windy or raining I get very little reception. I don’t even have a smart meter to measure my electricity, instead an old fashioned analog. I also drive a 2007 car so it’s unlikely it has a tracking device. I live in the sticks so there’s no chlorine in my water and I generally eat healthy organic food. I suffer from none of the illnesses of old age at a time when most people my age treat cancer as if it’s the common cold. None of this is much of a challenge for me.

Also … I pay my bills with a check but for my day to day spending I use cash.
