First story:
I don't remember a lot of details and I hope
someone has recently read this story or it's
one of their favorite.
The MC inherits a house from his uncle or
maybe grandfather. Everything else went to
his aunts or others. He either finds or knows
that the house has a laboratory. He then
finds his uncles lab notes and builds a
gate/wormhole/vortex to another earth/planet
dimension. He gets and old truck and uses
it as the vehicle to go through the gate.
On the other earth he find they value different
medals than his earth (They may have lots of gold
but not much copper). So he start trading with
them.
He also finds his uncle had a force field that
would only allow MC to get into the house.
His uncle thought the government might
come after him and take what they wanted.
He had a way for everything to self
destruct if the government got in or
he wanted it to.
The MC find one earth that is not as populated
or an area he likes that has no one around.
He build another house and lab to escape to
when he needs to. After he does have to
escape to his new world, one day his uncle
shows up and he finds his uncle had done
the same thing on a different earth.
