Dear Money Adventurer, Dreams are seeds of hope that we plant for ourselves. With a wish, a plan, and loving determination, we nurture them hoping that they’ll take root. Once upon a time, my husband, Forest, and I dreamed of living in an Earthship, a self-sustainable eco-home powered by renewable resources like wind and solar power. For years when our son, Noah, was younger, we would visit the Earthship community in Taos, New Mexico, twice a year. We fell in…
