Meet the Man Who Lives on Zero Dollars
Daniel Suelo lives near Moab in Utah. He is very much like the Old Testament prophets. Since 2000, he lived in a cave, and had zero money. He is thriving!
In the autumn of 2000, Suelo decided to stop using money. He left his life savings – $30 – in a phone booth and walked away.
He went on to fulfill a vision of the good life inspired by his spiritual guides: Jesus, Buddha and wandering sadhu monks in India.
He reminds us of John the Baptist, surviving in the desert on locusts and honey. Or Elijah in the Waddi being fed by ravens.
Here is a brief interview:
