Hall identifies as "a radical Catholic extremist," and he has taken a "vow of poverty," distancing himself from his former life as a child actor. He disclosed that he has given away his earnings and most of his possessions, aiming to live with minimal financial needs. "I plan to maintain a life as free of any need for an income as possible," he stated.

Living in a campervan equipped with a water well and a generator, the family has embraced a self-sufficient lifestyle. Hall revealed plans to build a house that would include a hydro-electrical dam and plumbing systems.
As part of their unconventional upbringing, Hall and Jill homeschool their daughters, expressing their intent to "strongly discourage" them from pursuing formal education, which they view as "nonsense."

Hall's move to Arkansas is not solely solitary; his brother, Gemini Barnett, mother Twila, and stepfather Mark have joined him, purchasing land nearby.
Reflecting on his past, Bug explained that the arrest was a turning point. He had been sober for 15 years before the incident, and it prompted him to reconsider his life choices. "I didn't want to live a life of manipulation," he said. He decided to leave the entertainment industry, stating that he did not want to work in a job that felt meaningless.
