Everything costs more than it did, and none of it's slowing down.

Your grandparents lived through worse — not because life was easy, but because they knew how to make a dollar do the work of three. And then we let all of it die with them.

One generation. That's all forgetting takes.

The man who wrote it down

He never thought any of it was worth writing down.

He raised a family through the Depression on almost nothing, and never once thought any of what he knew was worth writing down.

I'm Earl — his grandson. I'm the one who finally wrote it down, while there was still someone to ask.

Earl
Meet Earl

I pass along what my grandfather showed me — the plain, unglamorous things that ran a home for next to nothing. This book exists because almost nobody wrote any of it down, and I got tired of watching it go.

Stop being the last one who knew.

It's 300 skills, and it's waiting in your inbox.
