Maybe it's just me but i don't think so. How many of you cut firewood just because you like that little feeling inside that says you don't have to rely on anyone else to keep your family warm. That feeling of being a little self sufficient. Sure it can save me some money but there are other ways to save money thats less back breaking. When I first got married I worked my butt off to get all the crap that doesn't mean anything. new cars, big TV's, blah blah blah. Boy did I change the last five years or so. I love that feeling of kind of "stickin it to the man" I'm not going to pay no big oil company.
If you would have told me 15 years ago that I would be raising chickens, burning and selling firewood, catching fish in my own pond, gardening, etc. I would have said your nuts! Sure I still have a real job but man just this little taste of the good life sure is fine. The job pays the bills and puts away for retirement, the firewood selling makes for a great christmas each year and supports my other addiction very well. GUNS!
