Side note: If you are suffering from lack of motivation and focus, I highly recommend […]

When I originally set out to write this article, I was going to compile a whole list of ecofriendly yoga mats. However, I quickly found out that many yoga mats, including ones marketed as ‘eco-friendly’, contain plastics of some sort. In my humble opinion, plastic does not equal eco-friendly. So for the sake of this […]

This subject is of particular interest to me, as I have recently started a retail arbitrage business where I buy products at a low price and sell them at a higher price on websites like eBay and Amazon.

From take-out containers to gum wrappers, food packaging is all around us. Have you ever stopped to look at the waste that is produced from a lot of food products? Just yesterday, I opened up a box of cookies someone had given us for Christmas. The outside box was made from cardboard (good, it’s recyclable) […]

I am writing this article with my dad in mind. He is a 71-year-old baby boomer. He is a callused-hand, around the house Mr. Fix-it. He’s not fancy, definitely a meat and potatoes kind of guy. He loves playing with his grandchildren, watching boxing matches and Grey’s Anatomy (I introduced him to that show, you’re […]
