Once long ago, I wrote a book with this title and it was a boring little thing. Today I have all kinds of experience with those lean times that come and go. I am a nerd when it comes to homemaking and being frugal, however, frugality has its season. This book is all about that season and how to prepare for it, enjoy it, and have a rich and luxurious life despite small paychecks.And who says being broke is a bummer? In our house, we decided to unplug from the internet and downsize our life. We live with no stress and the days are simple. We focus on learning, playing, and hobbies. I don't do all the hustles I used to juggle to make money, instead, I focus on family and my writing career. In downsizing the paychecks we have gone back to how we used to live on one small paycheck. Brew some coffee and join me in this new (and old) journey. We will be looking at running a home and living a good life with a small income from all aspects.
Such a great book full of practical wisdom. Kate never fails to deliver great advice, but it's like talking with a friend over coffee. She just has good, practical advice for living below your means and reminding you what's important and what can truly be let go, in order to focus on what really matters. Even if you've read her other books or watch her Youtube channel, this book still presents itself as fresh material that needs to be heard. It's a book that I'll turn back to when I need a remin
InspiringIf you're a fan of Kate, you'll love her book! I love her outlook on life. She always inspires me.
I loved this book and the lifestyle the author describes. From childhood, we are taught to make more money so we can buy more stuff ie cars, homes, vacations, etc. This book and the author's philosophy turns that idea on its head. Instead of striving for prestige, work, make enough, and be happy and grateful for what you have. Appreciate the little things. Also what I really, really liked about this book is that the author told stories of her role models--women who lived well on limited incomes.
