Make a better world from scratch

This website is not affiliated with the MacGyver TV series. It is, however, inspired by it. Want to spend less money, be more eco-friendly, and become more self-sufficient? You're in the right place.

If you use this website often and find it very helpful, please consider donating to tip me for my efforts using the button below. I appreciate anything; even $1 is plenty.

How to use this website: If you want the most impact for the least effort, click the link for "Helpful Books" and go read or buy them. Over the years those books will repay the initial investment by a lot. Also click the link directly below for lifehacks. This website might look simple, but a lot of information is packed into it. In fact you could spend days clicking through the links, and the websites they lead to. Use this website as a springboard for your own exploration. Note: the purpose of this site has been listed above. Despite the inclusion of several books and links that prepare for "the end of the world" which were added due to their practical tutorials, I do not condone hysterically preparing for the apocalypse.
