Yes, been there and done that. Dirt poor and also wanted for nothing. Have seen both sides of the spectrum.
Though I want to imagine my life without money but I cant.....
Yes, i've been extremely poor before and anyone who says money can't buy happiness has never been without it!
Yes..I can. It would take hard work and a lot of sacrifice, but the freedom that comes with it.....awesome even at worse. I can imagine people trading, houses made of wood and dirt. Horse drawn carriages would make a full return. The way money is used and abused today, no wonder no one can imagine life without it. It gets you tvs, houses, cars, expensive clothes.... but come on. You can make clothes, to many people sit on there butt and watch tv. You don't need a car when you have a horse, crops can be planted, animals can be hunted for meat. You would learn your own medicines.
Can we imagine our life without money?
Yea..its called happiness.
In an ideal world we would be able to barter and exchange. Money takes people hostage with fear. I've been at both ends of the spectrum, extremely poor and very comfortable. There were times in my life where we had the least money and I was very blessed and happy. In fact, I think it was that mindset - wanting what I had and being grateful, that lead me to a place of monetary comfort. I fully believe what we focus our mind on is what we perceive and manifest. If we focus all the time on lack, limitation, poverty etc. that's what follows.
I can't imagine not having any money at all, but I have been poor in my life. If no one at all had money we'd all have to work out a barter system. That might not be so bad.

Today it is 36 days that I live without money. It is a wonderful feeling to be free and not to depend on the activities of criminals - the banks and the financial system who steal other people's money - and their slaves - the politicians who keep this insane system alive. Join me, and the world...

Do you think a world without the burden of money is possible?In today's world everything is run by money. We cannot survive without it, we are classed because of it.
