Vanholio Is a Fucking Sellout!

Greedy van life sellout Vanholio represtented by a sculpture of a smiling, thumbs-up greedy capitalist with dollar sign tie. So much for the freedom of living in a van down by the river!
Say it: You’re a fucking sellout, Vanholio! It’s the goddamn truth. Vanholio’s walked back his promise to do no ads. Well, if you don’t like it, use a fucking ad blocker! Van life, even down by the river, costs some money. Don’t need much, but takes something.

Look, here’s my priorities for Vanholio.com:
  1. Have fun writing and promoting the blog
  2. Entertain and educate ya’ll about the glories of van life
  3. Add an income stream and avoid getting a regular job
That last ain’t been happening much. So here’s what I done:

  • Added the Traveling Mailbox and Amazon.com ads to the sidebar and posts
  • Linked the Vanholio Gear Shop in the menu
  • Put in the Beer Me! donation buttons in posts and on the menu
  • Linked CafePress Vanholio Merch on the menu and in a popup
  • Embedded links to Amazon items and Traveling Mailbox in posts

Update As of Jan. 1, 2017

I hope I ain’t gone too far. Vanholio hates spammy sites as much as the rest of ya’ll do. Sure don’t care to make Jeff Bezos more rich neither.

Even this here fairly cheap van life costs money. Living in a van down by the river just ain’t totally cash-free, dammit. But then, I’ve done worse for scratch.

Soon I’ll be puttin’ up of my ebooks for sale. Now those I’ll be proud to push! But they ain’t been writ yet.

Go, go ahead and gimme shit in the comments. It’s your big chance to give ol’ Vanholio what fer.
