Living Without Money - Zerocurrency.blogspot.com

Such an interesting concept.  In my opinion, it is quite the opposite of what most people are trying to do.  Especially in the United States, ever since kindergarten and before, we are conditioned as children that one day we will work and have to find some type of work that we enjoy doing.  Why?  Cause every body needs money.  We learn that civilization is a capitalistic society and that every thing revolves around money.

Escorts will have sex with absolute strangers.  For what?  For money.

I am no political expert, but what I am told is that the root cause of most modern day wars, has to do with oil, or the control of it and in effect,  money.

Zerocurrency.blogspot.com is authored via Daniel Suelo.  He has an FAQ list that answers all of the common questions that people ask of him pertaining to his desire to live with zero exchange of money or bartering.

I came across his site a few weeks ago.  Read it for about an hour.  Found it to be interesting.  Now a few weeks later, even though I do not know his entire concept, I felt it important to make a blog entry, cause his life style and perception of life is very interesting in my opinion.

Here we are living in a world in which the capitalistic dreams of a billionaire like Donald Trump are considered via many to be the American dream.

Young whippersnapper Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of FaceBook, is perhaps a billionaire 50 times over.  His parents are a psychiatrist and a dentist and obviously they instilled in their son capitalistic values.

It seems that the author of this Living Without Money site, has the 180 degree opposite perspective in life.

From what I read briefly, he suffered clinical depression via living in capitalistic society and his healing process came via spirituality and via the concepts he learned living without money.

My quick synopsis is that he is a spiritual hippie kinda guy.  Living in the woods, living off the land.  Catching fish and eating them along with berries and mushrooms.

I do not know every thing about his philosophy of life.  This post though, is the beginning of knowing more.
