>Indeed, Stern has been living his “real life,” as he says, hiking, raising cattle, growing produce and creating sculptures out of bronze, a far departure from rubbing elbows with Joe Pesci in Home Alone, narrating The Wonder Years and popping up in more recent series including Shrill.
>Stern’s decision to purchase a ranch and begin “stepping away” from the public gaze was informed by a wish to disconnect from the “overwhelming” reality of being a big star.
>”I made enough money that I didn’t have to work,” he says. “I made enough money and I’m kind of frugal … I bought the house in cash. I bought the cars in cash. I bought everything straight up because as an artist, I never knew if [I was] going to make any more bread. And I said to my wife, ‘How much money do I need to sock in the bank so that we can live off the interest and so that I don’t have to work?’ She said, ‘We hit it.’ That was like, ‘Okay, Dan, now you’re going to put your money where your mouth is’ … ‘What am I going to do with it? Am I going to keep chasing another part or that?’ ” Instead, he decided to go the path of wholly pursuing his passion projects — and hasn’t looked back since.
>Ultimately, Stern says “at this point … I love being in nature. I love being away. I love my solitude and I love being able to focus on what I’m making. So the farm world is a great place for me.”

This dude is an amazing sculptor.
Lucky guy. If only we all could just exist and thrive as our own true selves. Imaging what a world it would be.
