    As someone with a steel bladder, the outhouse wouldn't be too much of a hurt for me, of course it'll be the year I no doubt have multiple stomach bugs and the runs.
    I have eaten all the popcorn, I left none for anyone else.

    lol sign me up. Horse and carriage. I live a 10 minute walk from my job and 5 minutes from town. I wouldn't even use it.

    Easy. Horse and carriage. I have little need for a car or horse. Everything is quite close. I'd just sell the horse and carriage right away.

    And being without a car for 1 year is something I've done already, when I was diagnosed with epilepsy. Had to go for that long without seizures to get driving ban off my ass. I could do it again, especially now. It sucked back then, as things like markets were further away than they are now.

    A bit more here, then comes the other things. Haha. I'd just take the cart option, sell the horses and walk.

    I could deal with any of them but I would choose the lamp as long as it doesn't extend to TV and PC usage. The deciding factor is cold weather.

    Lamp, couldn’t survive without the other two.

    Outhouse, because who cares where I'm squatting to take a shit? It's the place where comfort matters the least and I spend the least amount of time. I need my car and electricity but I can drop a deuce just about anywhere.

  12. #172
    For $1,000,000 million, i’d use all three.

    The horse one is way more maintenance and hassle, you have to feed the horse, take care of it, potentially eating a lot of your time per day. Also you need special license to use it in modern traffic, also I believe many modern cities don't even allow them in most parts of the City.

    Outhouse is easy, many still use those today. Have used them myself, even on winter. Easy task.

    The light part is even easier... just buy candles once in a while.


    Outhouse is probably the easiest and requires less maintenance than others.

    For such huge amount of money, these practically regular everyday tasks people do today.

    Horse and Carriage cause I work from home and would have my shit delivered at that point so I just wouldn't go anywhere for a year for $1m xd.

    OP must have had a real easy life if he considers doing any of these 3 things for a year is any sort of challenge at all.

    I guess horse and carriage. Just leave it at the farm and let the horses roam with the cows and horse. Come back in a year to return the horse and carriage.

    Outhouses are no fun in the Canadian winter and people don't like chamber pots these days. We have an outhouse at my Cottage that we pretty much only use in the cold months as water freezes in a none heated building so toilets don't work. You do not wanna wake up in the middle of the night and have to walk in -20 weather to take a shit.

    I could also do candle light as my computer screen and cell phones provide enough light to do things anyways.

    If you got the money up front then this wouldn't be a problem at all as you could use it to live off of. The other option is to quit your job and live off of credit till you get paid to make it easier. All in all wouldn't be hard to do any of the three as you can just live at home for the year.
