All in Home

Financial freedom is my goal, but tiny living has definitely not given it to me. I had to take a loan out to finish my tiny house. A minalmilst mindset just doesn't describe me. I'm a confirmed practicalist. Which I define as "own as many "I use every week" items as possible." Freetime has also not been given to me. My experience is that I spend more time cleaning the tiny house than my apartment because you can always see the mess and the dust...
