The Moneyless Man chats to Chris about Money (and the lack of it)

You can’t sell to Mark Boyle. Or buy from him. Or pay him, or be employed by him. Mark Boyle lives a life of cashless transactions. He knows what he’s doing. I was feeling broke so I thought I would talk to the expert.

The Guardian did a whole series of articles featuring Mark, including Mark Builds an Earth Ship (without money), How to Party (cashless), and of course the essential How to Eat without Cash. Mark pushes a concept called Freeconomy, whereby you give in advance, no money involved in every transaction.

I’ve just read The Moneyless Man and can honestly say i had tears in my eyes at the end. You might want to take a glance at other people who live without money touching their lives. The Freeconomist people even have an advert, and weirdly – despite not a penny was spent on its creation, it’s good.

    I have been following mark boyle for 2 yrs. He is my hero. Instead of using money, Money is misused and abused and no one can be sure of putting certain value on anybody or any items and thats why Money should not exists.
