I was watching a T.V show and saw that this guy who lives on an island in Seychelles! Here is a article on him:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2135299/Brit-bought-cut-price-island-Seychelles-50-years-ago--lives-blissful-solitude.html

I understand that was a long time ago when he bought it and that money was worth much more 50 years ago, but I was just wondering if there are any islands for sale, anywhere on Earth, apart from Australia , the Caribbean and any near dangerous areas in Africa. Mediterranean islands would be my first choice, but even Scotland would be ok.

I'm going to college next year, taking my A levels, when I've finished I would aim to get a job and add to my savings/possible inheritance to save up for an island.

The island would also need a good sustainable food supply and be near-ish to other people (within 3 miles).

Well if you want buy an island in a tropical setting where sun shines 12 months a year than grow the proper trees for that type of climate the same as the guy in that article it will provide the food for you, however if you can afford an island you can afford a lot of things including food and a raft, fishing would supply you with food, and eating coconuts and god knows what other things you can grow im not an expert unfortunately, japan build an airport in the middle of the sea, if you truly do become a multi millionaire or billionaire in your lifetime you can just build your own island a couple of miles a way from the main land, though i don't know how well it would work out or whether it would actually sink at some point, but if you are rich buying an island is unnecessary you can buy any house and live like a king,you are young now you may not have this same dream when you get older

Understand the many premises behind The Paleo Diet and that will help guide you toward living a complete Paleo Diet lifestyle. Learn here https://tr.im/1ncfl



For breakfast, make an easy omelet. Peppers, mushrooms, and broccoli in olive oil; add omega-3-enriched or free-range eggs and diced turkey or chicken breast.



Paleo lunches are easy. At the beginning of the week, make a huge salad with anything you like. A good starting point can be mixed greens, spinach, radishes, bell peppers, cucumbers, carrots, avocadoes, walnuts, almonds and sliced apples or pears.



For dinner, try spaghetti squash as a substitute for any pasta recipe. Top with pesto, marinara and meatballs. Roasted beets and their greens make a great side dish for pork.

You would have to generate your own electricity and have your own water supply. What about the costs of a boat to get to mainland?



Also if Islands were that cheap I'd be very surprised.

Pretty sure you can't find an island with a good sustainable food supply for 20,000 euros. Lmfao
