Imagine working eight hours daily, Monday to Friday, until you are at the age of 65. It does not sound very appealing, am I right? What about having not to have to work at all? Just try to imagine how it would feel to be able to wake up whenever you want and to do anything that you desire. Do not waste your time being a slave. Working constantly and barely having time to do anything else is not living. That is merely existing. Having multiple passive income streams is the number one key to wealth accumulation!

Ninety-five percent of potential real estate investors never buy a single property. Is it because real estate isn’t a sound investment? Is it because they’re priced out the market? No. It’s because they don’t recognize the earning potential in real estate. Nearly 36.6 percent of US households are renting - that’s the biggest percentage since 1965. Now is the golden era for residential real estate investment.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. 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.

When she was suddenly given the opportunity of a new life in rural Jutland, journalist and archetypal Londoner Helen Russell discovered a startling statistic: the happiest place on earth isn't Disneyland but Denmark, a land often thought of by foreigners as consisting entirely of long, dark winters, cured herring, Lego and pastries. What is the secret to their success? Are happy Danes born or made?

Tired of the pace and noise of life near London and longing for a better place to raise their young children, Mary J. MacLeod and her husband, George, encountered their dream while vacationing on a remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. Enthralled by its windswept beauty, they soon were the proud and startled owners of a near-derelict croft house - a farmer’s stone cottage - on “a small acre” of land. Mary assumed duties as the island’s district nurse.

Story
Elisabeth Tova Bailey tells the intimate and inspiring story of her year-long encounter with a snail. While an illness keeps her bedridden, she becomes an astute and amused observer of the snail's surprising nocturnal adventures as it lives in a flowerpot on her nightstand. Intrigued by the snail’s clear decision making abilities, hydraulic locomotion, mysterious courtship, and molluscan anatomy, Bailey takes the listener deep into the life of this tiny amazing animal. With wit and grace, The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating recounts a remarkable journey of human and gastropod survival and resilience, and shows how the natural world illuminates our own human existence. Winner of the William Saroyan International Prize for Nonfiction, the John Burrough Medal Award for Natural History, and a National Outdoor Book Award. If you enjoyed Wesley the Owl, The Guest Cat, and Marley & Me, you'll enjoy this unique interspecies audiobook listen.

Great guide how to buy fisherman's cottage
Great guide how to buy fisherman's cottage for everyone who is interested in fishing and having a small place on the seaside. I thought that you need a ton of money to live near the beach but after listening to this book I see I was wrong and fisherman's cottage can be a great place to have not only for fisherman. You can even make money from it. Also you will find good tips how to maintain your cabin.

Informative and comprehensive!
Great listen for anyone looking to buy a seaside cottage! It really takes you through each step like looking for the right location, choosing a great spot in that location, advice on how to do your due diligence, and also how to maintain your cottage once you've actually purchased. There's also a bonus chapter about renting your cottage out which is beneficial if you plan on renting it out full time or if you only plan on living in it for certain times throughout the year and want to rent it for the remainder. Would recommend!

Great book for anyone looking at buying on the water
I came across this book recently while researching buying a cottage on the coast in Connecticut. I’ve come to find out there is more involved than I had originally anticipated but James walks you through the process phenomenally. Something you might not think of like spending some time in town to learn the history of the house and the people in the neighborhood. That is awesome advice. This book is full of informational gems like that that will help you navigate the waters of buying a cottage. I can’t recommend this book enough for someone in that position as it is an invaluable resource. Thanks James!

Good information
I looked at similar homes in places like Portland, OR, or Vancouver, WA. Since Fisherman's cottages are less common than I want to settle, I found this book really helpful, especially the maintenance sections. The price strategies and special maintenance sections were also good. I found the narrator to be a slow talker. I solved this problem by increasing the speed to 1.7. I also found the book to be a bit short, but the author does a great job at packing in the information. If you are looking for a good audiobook on buying a Fisherman's Cottage then look no further.

The Getaway.
I don’t know much about fishing, but I have lots of friends that do. I love being around it. A fisherman’s cottage would be so great! This audiobook lends insight of the options in life. A quick getaway is needed in the concrete jungle.
