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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mark Sundeen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1594485690\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781594485695\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Riverhead Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/06\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2012 pg. 10\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eOutside\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2012 pg. 46\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/26\/2012","brand":"Mark Sundeen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047874425087,"sku":"9781594485695","price":16.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_22212d97-dc1f-4885-acef-ca50f9a94005.jpg?v=1684992649","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-man-who-quit-money-mark-sundeen-9781594485695","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
