À propos de cet audio

A Walden for the 21st century, the true story of a man who has radically reinvented "the good life."

In 2000, Daniel Suelo left his life savings - all 30 dollars of it - in a phone booth. He has lived without money - and with a newfound sense of freedom and security - ever since.

The Man Who Quit Money is an account of how one man learned to live, sanely and happily, without earning, receiving, or spending a single cent. Suelo doesn't pay taxes, or accept food stamps or welfare. He lives in caves in the Utah canyonlands, forages wild foods and gourmet discards. He no longer even carries an I.D. Yet he manages to amply fulfill not only the basic human needs - for shelter, food, and warmth - but, to an enviable degree, the universal desires for companionship, purpose, and spiritual engagement. In retracing the surprising path and guiding philosophy that led Suelo into this way of life, Sundeen raises provocative and riveting questions about the decisions we all make, by default or by design, about how we live - and how we might live better.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Suelo isn’t a conflicted zealot, or even a principled aesthete. He’s a contented man who chooses to wander the Earth and do good. He’s also someone you’d want to have a beer with and hear about his life, as full of fortune and enlightenment as it is disappointment and darkness…At its core, The Man Who Quit Money is the story of a man who decided to live outside of society, and is happier for it.” ( Men’s Journal)
“Thoughtful and engrossing biography that also explores society’s fixation with financial and material rewards...Although few listeners will even consider emulating Suelo’s scavenger lifestyle, his example will at least provoke some serious soul-searching about our collective addiction to cash.” ( Booklist)

I read the book 10 years ago and loved the concept and ideology of the main character. it was a refreshing read back then and a great listen today.

As everything does when we allow, this has brought me closer to God, as scary a proposition as that seems.
