From a minimalist/monetary independence extremist perspective odd books on good housekeeping (in case you should study it from a e-book 
) simply received’t lower it. Truly in the case of monetary independence, data focused at “normals” is continuously ineffective(*). Therefore, one should look elsewhere.

There are additionally tips about hold kids entertained (gainfully employed?) given the dearth of TV (TVs are evil!). Learn how to do laundry (clotheslines and rainwater), and so forth.
This e-book is a keeper, so I’m placing it on my wishlist on paperbackswap.com (I bought it from the library).
