Now let us see if we can answer your question. First, they do not have very great living expenses. They do not drive cars hence no insurance costs or fuel or maintenance costs. They do not carry property insurance and they do not use gadgets such as computers and cell phones. In fact they do not buy any consumer goods and do with the cheapest food they can find.

I talked to a bigger farmer a while ago who told me of a case where he had an Amish man working for him for a few years. He was a good worker and the farmer paid him well.
