Hi All, Just a quick post to wish you a very Merry Christmas, and thank you all for reading our articles in this our first year! It’s been a sporadic process in getting Self Sufficiency World up and running, and then beginning to create useful content, but I can promise that 2011 will bring a wealth of [...] After a relatively straightforward house move, the trials of rural UK broadband took a while to overcome, followed by some unplanned time spent fixing a variety of computer issues. Happily, everything is now resolved, and after a longer than planned break, we are back. While we’ve been gone we’ve seen a government spending review and it [...] Well it’s been a mad few weeks what with one thing another. We’ve entered the silly season at my day job, which has necessitated quite a bit of unexpected business travel.

That’s because we are “helped” on a daily basis by a large number of often unappreciated, and very interdependent systems. The fact that they are interdependent, means that a considerable amount of redundancy needs to be built into them for them to be [...] This might seem like a strange heading for the subject of Self Sufficiency, but it really isn’t. Here’s why… You can’t be self sufficient if you have debt hanging over you like a weight on your shoulders ready to crush you. The recent economic turmoil demonstrates very ably the mess that people, organisations and even countries [...] Hi, This site is intended to cover self sufficiency and self reliance in it’s broadest definition, and in coming articles I hope to cover a wide variety of subjects that may help the individual to become more self sufficient, whilst also discussing why I believe we should strive for this in the first place. I believe todays civilised world [...] |
