Live Free: A Practical Guide to Life Beyond Money shows how individuals can reduce their dependence on cash while still meeting essential needs such as food, shelter, and education-legally, ethically, and realistically.
This book is not about avoiding responsibility or rejecting society. Instead, it offers practical strategies built on skills, community cooperation, and intentional simplicity. Readers will learn how people around the world already use shared systems, barter, self-education, and minimal living to regain control over their time and choices.
Inside this guide, you'll discover:
Practical ways to access food through growing, sharing, and skill exchange
Legal approaches to cooperative and skill-based housing
How to learn valuable skills without tuition or debt
Barter systems, time banking, and community exchange models
A step-by-step 30-day transition plan with worksheets
Whether you are a student, minimalist, immigrant, or someone tired of living paycheck to paycheck, this book provides a realistic roadmap to a freer life beyond money.
