Financial planning is SO much more than just simply how much money one has to invest.
A true financial planner needs to understand a clients cash flow. In fact, I argue, cash flow is the single most important thing in financial planning. (After health, that is. Which is why you should listen to Episode 33 on how to get stronger and why it's so important. )
The easiest way to increase cash flow is to reduce expenses. I talk a lot about switching out incandescent light bulbs for LED ones and other easy "fixes" for decreasing electricity usage.
In this episode we go MUCH deeper and talk about how alternative energy can play a significant role in reducing your cash outflow by getting your home more efficient and creating your own electricity.
Shawn Mills lives with his wife and 2 daughters in an off-grid home in Tennessee. They use a variety of techniques to power their house. Solar PV, Solar Thermal, Wood, Propane etc.
Listen as Shawn tells us how we can be energy independent.
