“What do you do? I’d like to learn new ways “

Grow our own food... It’s amazing when you are cleaning up after a meal and realize that everything either came from a jar on the basement shelves or off the farm.

I grew up without TV... what a blessing as I love to read. I did the same thing for my children as they were growing up. NO TV!!!

If I could only figure out a way to get rid of the darn high real estate taxes!!!!

As to frugality... Off the grid is mainly utilities...

No public water with monthly bills

No public sewage with monthly bills

No home phone with monthly bills.

No TV cable with monthly bills.

I could do without electric if necessary...

I view frugality merely a method of allocating resources... I love to travel, often internationally... Living frugally allows me to do what I want.

Thank you! And fully agree with you — frugality is a method of allocating resources. Instead of wasting the money, you have money to do the things you love like travelling.
