This guy shows how to make your own vanilla extract with just two ingredients — and it’s way better (and way cheaper) than what you buy at the store.
He uses a simple 1:8 ratio of vanilla beans to vodka, splits the beans so they extract faster, and keeps a big “mother jar” going that he’s had for over 9 years. You just top it off with fresh beans and alcohol when it gets low, and it keeps getting better and better.
If you bake or cook a lot, this is actually pretty genius. Have you ever made your own vanilla extract before?

Planting berry bushes is arguably one of the highest gardening ROIs and easiest to maintain.
I currently have 10+ blackberries, 10 blueberry bushes, and 5 raspberries in my backyard and I still want to expand it further.
Last year I picked >10lbs of blackberries alone. Didn’t weigh the blueberries and raspberries but probably 15lbs total (all organic). And the yields will increase every year.
On top of all of that, all you basically have to do is water if it gets super hot and fertilize once a month.
And the biggest benefit is it’s a great activity to do with your kids to get them outside and away from screens.

Spend 1 hour with this.

Your call.
I haven't read this book, but the lesson from just the title is good enough.
Don't risk losing something that’s very important to you to gain something that’s totally unimportant. Work hard to get rich once, then just try to survive by avoiding calamitous risks.
