It is said a dollar saved is a dollar earned. The reality is, a dollar saved is much more than a dollar earned! Taking into account everything involved to earn a dollar, like the cost of gas, time to commute, as well as income taxes, a dollar saved is more like two dollars earned. Therefore, saving a dollar is far better than making a dollar!

If you’re like I was at the beginning of my NFT journey, you’re feeling confused, skeptical, but also a little interested to see what all the hype is about. I quickly discovered that most people were not very good at explaining NFTs and why they even matter. So I took it upon myself to learn everything I possibly could about this 40-billion-dollar industry and turned everything I learned about navigating, profiting, and building in the NFT world into a framework called the "NFT Equation" that took me from confused and skeptical to obsessed and empowered in this asset class.

But boondocking also means you're on your own, and you'll want to go prepared. Here, Sunny Skye gives you the basics you'll need to know, things like the best rig to have, being independent, coping with boredom and loneliness, as well as dealing with insects, wild animals, and pests.

The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
For 30 years, drummer, author, and songwriter Neil Peart had wanted to write a book about "the biggest journey of all in my restless existence: the life of a touring musician." Finally, the right time, and the right tour. In the summer of 2004, after three decades, 20 gold albums, and thousands of performances, the band Rush embarked on a 30th Anniversary World Tour. The "R30" tour traveled to nine countries, where the band performed 57 shows for more than half a million fans. Uniquely, Peart chose to do his between-show traveling by motorcycle, riding 21,000 miles of back roads.
