Good for your health – Your health is heavily influenced by what you put in your body. It is an investment in your future. Cook now so you can have better health in your 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.
Good for your wallet – Cooking all of your meals at home won’t make you a millionaire by itself, but long-term, it does help the expenses. By cooking most meals at home, I currently pay about $3 a meal. I think that is a pretty good deal for good food. Plus, I don’t have to tip.
Helps develop soft skills – Cooking has made me wickedly good at time management and juggling multiple things at the same time. I haven’t figured out how to put this on my work resume yet, but I’m going to figure it out.
