Could you live without money? The Comments Section with E & V

from The Broke Generation · host Emma Edwards

Earlier this year, The Guardian published an article on Jo Nemeth: the woman who lives without money. Instead of engaging in paid work and using that income to pay for goods, services and shelter, she contributes to an intergenerational household with unpaid labour.  In this episode, we unpack the concept of living without money, including whether it's a giant leap forward to a society less hamstrung by late stage capitalism, or whether it's a sinister step backwards to a time when women lived without money under the control of their male partners.  Read the full article here: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2025/feb/01/meet-the-woman-who-lives-without-money-i-feel-more-secure-than-when-i-was-earning See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
