Living without money

Here's someone more successful than me:

http://sites.google.com/site/livingwithoutmoney/

Excerpt from the site: "I've been living without a cent to my name since the autumn of 2000 (with a month's exception during my first year). I don't use or accept money or conscious barter, and I don't take food stamps or other government dole. (And, after 8 years, to my joy, I've learned there are other people in the world doing the same.) Why? I simply got tired of acknowledging as real this most common world-wide belief called money! I simply got tired of being unreal. Money is one of those intriguing things that becomes real because you believe it is real. "

Don't ask for permission, ask for forgiveness!

One step in the preparation for leading a life without money is to communicate it to others. This is the note I will print and give out for people who might stop me for what I do:

No for money

I’m sorry if my behavior has troubled you somehow. I have chosen to refuse money. I work for free and fulfill my place in the society.

You might think I’m crazy but I’m just refusing our current crazy system. I’m experimenting with this lifestyle to prove we the people don’t need money to survive: we need love, compassion and sharing.

Please try to understand and let me have what I need. I’m grateful and will pay it forward… without money.
