    I enjoy walking and taking time just to be by myself with nothing I need to focus on in particular. However, I live in the country, and there are no sidewalks in my neighborhood. To go on walks, I need to walk partially on other people's properties to keep myself out of the road. It isn't the safest area for walking or running outdoors.

    An average American throws out about 240 lbs of food per year. The average family of four spends $1,500 a year on food that they throw out. Where would you rather use this money?

    There are so many things I could use this money for, such as putting it towards student loans or paying other bills.
