I didn't downvote you, but I am genuinely curious where you got the idea that we know how to live on Mars already?

In theory, you just go there, plop down a habitat, and live in it.
In practice, it might be a little tougher than it sounds. :-)
At least the low gravity makes a space elevator tenable with current materials -- that'd be a big aid. Getting to and from parking orbit from Earth is such a pain!
Solar radiation? Probably why burrowing would be the way to go.
