Daniel Suelo, an extreme blogger

http://www.treehugger.com/files/2009/10/48-year-old-blogger-gone-9-years-without-money.php

This man really doesn't want to have anything to do with money - he has sworn to live without spending money for 9 years! He claims that he forages for food, then posts about his lifestyle on his own website from the local library.

It is interesting that he is able to live this way, but he would not be able to do so without living in the society that he does. He is able to get by living in a cave while dumpster diving for sustenance, but it is due to an affluent nation, and just how much household waste we are able to scorn here. Daniel Suelo is an example of someone who really is anti-consumerism.
