Don't Need Much Money is exactly what it sounds like: a site about needing less, so you have more. More time. More freedom. More room to actually live. The idea is simple. The less money you need to survive, the more time you have to thrive. Lower your living costs, live a healthy lifestyle focused on longevity and mobility, stay out of debt, and build a little savings, and you buy yourself something far more valuable than money: time. Time to do what you actually love, spend with people you care about, and put toward things that matter. This site is my own real life running that experiment.

I am watching the societal craze with Apple products take a very interesting turn. In a time where we are tackling issues of diversity, social justice, and discrimination, we are not recognizing that the same human tendencies are now playing out in our technological world.

Just like human diversity should be embraced and celebrated, so should our diversity in products and services. So the next time you uncover a non-Apple user in your social circle, celebrate it, don't shame it.
