Weekend Homesteader: May
”Twelve months to self-sufficiency! This fully updated second edition of the popular Weekend Homesteader series includes exciting, short projects that you can use to dip your toes into the vast ocean of homesteading without getting overwhelmed. If you need to fit homesteading into a few hours each weekend and would like to have fun while doing it, these projects will be right up your alley, whether you live on a forty-acre farm, a postage-stamp lawn in suburbia, or a high rise. The May volume includes the following projects: • Plant your summer garden • Decipher nutrition • Choose the right mulch for each plant • Make homesteading easy with teamwork The second edition has been revised and expanded to match the paperback, with extra photos and feedback from weekend homesteaders just like you, plus permaculture-related avenues for the more advanced homesteader to explore.”
Planning + Preparation = Survival
Aimed at Christians. “They thought catastrophes always happened to someone else, never to them. And if it did happen, they believed the government would arrive on the scene and rescue them before their cups of coffee turned cold. If this is your present thinking, then allow me to say one word to smash your ideas to smithereens: Katrina. Yes, Hurricane Katrina, the watershed event when all of us should have learned to never again place our faith in governments to rescue us or our families from catastrophes. "Planning + Preparation = Survival" is a no-nonsense book written to show Christians how to pray, plan, and prepare ourselves, our families, and our communities for possible natural and terrorist catastrophes in the near future.“

How To Earn Millions and Get Out Of the Ghetto In One Generation - A very thoughtful and unique look at how you can go from the bricks to building generational wealth
Your Financial Intervention (Financial Survival Tactics for New Adults)
”Written as a no-nonsense approach to help "new adults" avoid common mistakes that can destroy their personal finances, Your Financial Intervention, may be the key to realizing bad habits and forming a plan for recovery. What may be considered "normal" in life for many 16-25 year olds (poor spending and savings practices) contribute to feelings of inadequacy, failure and even despair, because eventually being enslaved to debt catches up to them. Knowing that simplicity and common sense are not only cool, but a smart way to keep from going broke will keep the new adult on track for achieving what they truly want out of life, contentedness, less stress and to be able to achieve what so few Americans will in the 21st century--the ability to one day retire! Your Financial Intervention makes the perfect gift for the college bound, or recently college graduated, new adult.”
