Book Review: Money Secrets of the Amish (Booksneeze.com)

Money Secrets of the Amish: Finding True Abundance in Simplicity, Sharing, and Saving by Lorilee Craker.

I found the book to be full of very practical, money saving ideas! Learning how to live simply is something that is a cornerstone of the Amish beliefs. Their philosophy is to use it up, make do without, rethink gift-giving, recycle, reuse, and as Ms. Craker put it, eat like royalty for a peasant's pittance. The author was able to creatively explore how the Amish people live happy lives without all the material possessions we're accustomed to in our society. This is a great book for a high school life skills class or economics course.
