| Rethinking The Way We Live: Co-Housing |
| Written by - |
Most of us have certain expectations about our lifestyle set by that good ole American Dream. It paints the picture of all us with our own home sitting on a large lot, our own car, our own TV/computer/stereo/lawn equipment etc. A nice picture for sure, but as personal finance people are pointing out more and more frequently, an expensive picture.
With the cost of food, energy and basic necessities rising rapidly, not to mention that many of us Boomers, single and married, have a beer retirement budget despite our champagne tastes, it may make sense to consider other options. Co-housing not only has definite financial benefits, but some wonderful social benefits as well. |
