Country Bound! |
|---|
In this one-of-a-kind resource you get not only advice -- but also phone numbers, addresses, and Web sites to help you track down every bit of information needed to make a successful rural relocation. Substance and a dash of humor rule here. This is a candid, detailed, and specific relocation kit like no other. In 19 information-dense, yet lively, chapters you'll discover everything you need to know to make a pain-free move and earn a comfortable living in Small Town USA.
This is not a back-to-the-land book. Small towns are defined as anything under 100,000 population (which is small to someone from NYC or Los Angeles). A Gallup Poll reveals a whopping 81% of Americans would prefer to live in towns under this size! Most can't because they are tethered to jobs in big-city corporations.
Country Bound! solves that problem. It's every bit as much of a business book as it is a lifestyle guide. The entire Part II tells entrepreneurs how to prosper in paradise. We explain the "Lone Eagle" concept about how knowledge professionals can work from anywhere -- and explore the "virtual" office. All it takes is five acres and a modem and you can be in business!
We've added many Web sites to this completely revised edition to simplify your research, tucked in references to the Internet here and there, plus added a meaty section on how small rural businesses can use cyberspace to level the playing field. No other book on the subject includes these or touches on how the Internet will change our lives. Virtually every page in Country Bound! has specific references leading readers to find more information, make better choices, and do it easier and less expensively.
It packs a one-two punch: not only are you shown how to find the right small town so you can experience real quality of life, you are guided in how to effectively go into business there. "The Boonies are Booming," proclaimed Business Week in an October 9, 1995, story. People want to escape the rat race. Now there's a book to help you follow your dream . . . without tripping over a nightmare.
