IT MATTERS

Have you ever thought to yourself, "Man, I hate having so much space...if only I could live in a teeny tiny house!" Maybe you are suffering from the recent downturn in our country's economy...or maybe you are really wanting to go Green and minimize your carbon footprint...OR maybe you have a secret fascination with turtles and want to carry YOUR home around with you wherever you go- for whatever the reason, check out this website and see why people are deciding to go small to go home.

Jay Shafer, the mastermind behind the Tumbleweed Tiny House Company, is just one of the many people who have decided bigger is NOT better. He lives in one of his own creations which includes all the amenities a larger and far more expensive house would have without all that 'extra space'...or extra cost. These little buggars sell for around $15,000 and cost a mere $15 a month in utilities. Sounds pretty good, right? Well...don't get too excited yet. Jay may be able to live out his dream in his teeny tiny home...but there's not enough space for his wife. I guess every great deal has it's hidden cost, although for some of you, that might be an added bonus...
