People think I’m rich because I (stupidly?) took off a year to start blogging. The reason I was able to take off a year, is because I stopped buying. It was pretty simple for me and not so simple for many other people. (That’s a 3 Trillion obvious issue) But when you stop spending money, make do with less, you might be able to take off for a year as well. Oh- and I’m not rich- just cheap- and yes I will have to go back to work, especially since any retirement plan is now, how do I say- Almost GONE! How I did it, no new clothes, no new furniture, lots of oatmeal, I walk as much as possible, drank less wine and reuse, reuse and reuse.
In case you need help- Here are some great blogs that can help guide you to the simple life and meanwhile you can save money.
