You can have the life you love and live fully, richly, leisurely, on a small paycheck. Of course, there are some caveats to this lifestyle. Obviously, there is a limit to what you can have and how you can have it when you have only so much of a budget. How then can we live well, feeling almost wealthy in our humble lives, when we are making it on a blue-collar salary? It's a lifestyle, a mindset, and learning to be a hunter of deals and freebies, a thrifter, a bohemian decorator, a home cook, a gardener, and a visionary. Frugality is a culture and can be a craft in itself. Living almost broke can be the best thing to ever happen to a person once they embrace it and learn to work it to their advantage. This is NOT mainstream living. This is a whole lifestyle for the homebodies and artists, the parents and burnt out souls that want to get out of the corporate work force and off the commuter lane. You can have a simple, lovely, and peaceful life. This book will open that door.
