I’m about to graduate college and I’m really considering living off the grid. What’s some good tips and advice you can give me?

My advice would be test it out before going balls deep. Buy a small piece of property, buy a travel trailer and just live in it for a few seasons living off rice, beans, chicken, and veggies. If it's not for you just sell the land and travel trailer and go back to normal living. If it is for you then slowly start working on building up the land. I personally am not a fan of farming and dealing with livestock so I live off 50 lbs bags of rice and beans. $50 will get you over 100,000 calories worth of food. You can get a 5kw power system with 10kw of batteries for about $5000, used trailer for $15,000 and some cheap land for maybe 50k which you can mortgage for $600 a month. So save up like 30k and go for it.
