Shortly after getting married, Merissa Alink and her husband found themselves with nothing in their pantry but a package of spaghetti and some breadcrumbs. Their life had seemingly hit rock bottom, and it was only after a touching act of charity that they were able to get back on their feet again. Inspired by this gesture of kindness as well as the beloved Little House on the Prairie books, Merissa was determined to live an entirely made-from-scratch life, and as a result, she rescued her household budget—saving thousands of dollars a year. Now, she reveals the powerful and moving lessons she’s learned after years of homesteading, homemaking, and cooking from scratch. Filled with charm, practical advice, and gorgeous full-color photographs, Merissa shares everything from tips on budgeting to natural, easy-to-make recipes for taco seasoning mix, sunscreen, lemon poppy hand scrub, furniture polish, and much more. Inviting and charming, Little House Living is the epitome of heartland warmth and prairie inspiration.

Book excerpt: Practical Guidelines to Resourceful City Living, Self-reliance, Emergency Preparedness, and Getting More for Less A survival guidebook that reflects the world in which we now find ourselves. The post 9/11 world seems a bit more hostile, as terrorist threats and attacks are no longer a surprise. The Great Tsunami of Christmas 2004 showed us that quick extinctions (like Noah’s flood) can and do happen without apparent warning. Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy not only told us that it can happen to us, but that it is foolhardy to make no preparations and pretend that the government will take care of you in the post-disaster landscape. The price of gold id rising again. War, rumors of war, famines, political instability, economic instability, global pandemics – all these and more are causes of concern to the average family. Economic survival is also addresses, since this is such a fundamental building block of everything else in modern society. Money cannot be ignored.

Book excerpt: When faced with the possibility of a disaster ever happening in their life, most people respond with something along the lines of, "It won't ever happen to me" or "it can't ever happen to me."But the truth is you or anyone else cannot foretell the future. You can't honestly say that there will never be a food shortage or a cash shortage in the future.To prepare for such a scenario, you always have a choice to make: you can either prepare and be frugal now, or you can do nothing and have frugality forced upon you and your family.Frugal living is easily one of the best disaster preparations a true survivalist can make. For one thing, it enables you to spend additional resources towards your survival plan, but it also greatly lessens the surprise or the shock when a disaster scenario comes our way.A financial collapse or recession is just one of the many disasters that can and will be forced upon us. We already had one major recession back in 2008, but a future economic collapse will be far worse than that.Economic collapses and recessions are both noted for their high unemployment levels, bankruptcies of major businesses and companies, a significant lowering of consumer spending, and even hyperinflation which can lead to a multitude of other problems such as civil unrest. Can you honestly say you are prepared for an economic collapse? If not, then this book will be perfect for you.In this book, we are going to discuss how to begin preparing financially for a major disaster such as an economic collapse from a beginner's perspective.The specific subjects that we are going to cover include each of the following:* Why A Complete Financial Collapse Is Coming * The Benefits Of Preparing Financially Now* Setting A Budget and Getting Out Of Debt * Easy Ways To Make More Money * Living Frugally* Making A Survival Emergency Fund When people think about preparing for disaster, they often think about hoarding food and water and other necessities, putting together a bug out bag, finding a suitable bug out location, and so on.That's all great, but at the same time, you have to adequately prepare your finances for disaster as well. It's one of the most overlooked aspects of prepping, but at the same time, it's also one of the most critical.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Socrates to Thoreau, most philosophers, moralists, and religious leaders have seen frugality as a virtue and have associated simple living with wisdom, integrity, and happiness. But why? And are they right? Is a taste for luxury fundamentally misguided? If one has the means to be a spendthrift, is it foolish or reprehensible to be extravagant? In this book, Emrys Westacott examines why, for more than two millennia, so many philosophers and people with a reputation for wisdom have been advocating frugality and simple living as the key to the good life. He also looks at why most people have ignored them, but argues that, in a world facing environmental crisis, it may finally be time to listen to the advocates of a simpler way of life. The Wisdom of Frugality explores what simplicity means, why it's supposed to make us better and happier, and why, despite its benefits, it has always been such a hard sell. The book looks not only at the arguments in favor of living frugally and simply, but also at the case that can be made for luxury and extravagance, including the idea that modern economies require lots of getting and spending. A philosophically informed reflection rather than a polemic, The Wisdom of Frugality ultimately argues that we will be better off—as individuals and as a society—if we move away from the materialistic individualism that currently rules.
