It sounds like they did eventually have a prosperous farm after moving to Missouri later, but it took years and years to build up (only to lose their savings to the stock market crash because Rose told them to invest it, and then started supporting themselves through Laura's books). Everything that happened after The First Four Years didn't make it into what is traditionally considered the Little House series, so ending that book with utter failure would have been a pretty downer ending (I know both Laura and Rose wrote about later events, including the move to Missouri, but I don't know if those works were aimed at children, since I haven't read them).

I think the modern version of homesteading is starting your own business, and I get so frustrated with the idea that this is what everyone should aspire to. No, I don't want to quit my job because I actually love my job. No, I don't want to be my own boss, because that would require doing a whole lot of bullshit that I don't enjoy.
