Written by the late Joe Dominguez and Vicki Robin, this is a classic how-to about quitting working for “da man” and check out of paid employment all together. I first heard of this book about 10 years ago and it has certainly changed our lives.
The book describes how Joe left a tiresome and stressful job on Wall Street and eeked out a fulfilling existence on $6000 per year by following 9 steps discussed in the book. The steps are not simple, but are necessary for finding your “enough,” which is different than everyone else’s “enough.”
For instance, for our family, we find that we don’t get a lot out of eating at restaurants, but love traveling in our RV. We are willing to forego trendy clothes, expensive dinners, and McD’s, but please don’t ask us to get rid of the camper! (more…)
