These past years have been tough, and teens may have had it the hardest. From social isolation to re-integration, economic uncertainty, the pressures of academic achievement in an increasingly competitive society, and navigating the dangers of the online world, teens must face unique challenges that most adults never experienced in their youth. Unfortunately, these challenges have resulted in 91 percent of Gen Z young adults experiencing symptoms of depression and/or anxiety, making them the generation with the worst mental health on record.

It is believed that every salary earner cannot break the threshold of a great life as evident in a lot of salary earners. Salary earners complain of lack of sufficient money but when promotions come and salaries go up, in a few months the complaints resume. Our belief system and habits as salary earners is a major source of either failure or success. Decisions that include the type of car we drive, the kind of mortgage we take, and so on go a long way to determine how healthy our lifestyle will be.

In 2014, Elizabeth and Nate Thames were conventional 9-5 young urban professionals. But the couple had a dream to become modern-day homesteaders in rural Vermont. Determined to retire as early as possible in order to start living each day - as opposed to wishing time away working for the weekends - they enacted a plan to save an enormous amount of money: well over 70 percent of their joint take-home pay. Dubbing themselves the Frugalwoods, Elizabeth began documenting their unconventional frugality and the resulting wholesale lifestyle transformation on their eponymous blog.
