Is that possible? living without a money world??
If we skip money the most of complicated problems will be resolved
and all wars will be finished.That means :less damage = peacefull living .What's better then that ??
If we do this ,does any thing will trouble our social,economic,politic life??

Hi
If we can live without money, there is no need of economists or economy as a whole. Without economics, politics is meaningless. Without politics, there will be no society.
Now, what happens if there is no society?
I'm not sure that if there is no money, there will be no wars too. Look at the animal kingdom, animals don't need money, still they fight.
Money is a system, which makes us to work, think and react. Without money, we'll cease to exist, unless we go for barter system which is nothing but another form of transaction.

No .. that's my answer to your question! I strongly feel that today's world only communicate in materialism(money).. things are not easy without money.. ask them who are absolute poor and find it really hard to buy 1 time bread to fill their stomach.. its really tough world out there without money... I know its sad but its fact!

No, I do not think it is possible.
Think of it this way, even if you own land that you can grow food on and be self sufficient, you still need to pay taxes on the property that you are sitting on.
Unless the government is willing to take their dues in eggs, vegetables or meat, it is unlikely that you can do without money.
Even in the past, where money is not the object of contention, many wars were raged.
Some did it for power. Other did it to expand their territories.

hi everybody
I think that living without money isn't possible because without money we can't buy eating and we can't buy clothes and we can't travel and we can't but a television and a computer by which we can not know what is happening in the world

yeah it is possible..since we had already done that..i mean our ancestors lived without any money at all during their time...but if we are going to base on our present time where money is a necessity the i could say that we cant live without one...

Life is possible without money, a good example are the natives in the mountain. The most important thing to them is their land, that's where the plant and harvest their crops and thats where they take care of their animals.
But for people like us, who have been exposed and dependent with the commercialized environment, we can survive without money, but we won't be able to buy and have the things we have now.

Do you think we can? I guess, its very much impossible. But...Maybe, it can be if we will live in a forest. Everything is free, no money needed...
But if we gonna talk about here in the city life, then everything needs money or else, we will die...

There are people that do live without money, they barter and such. Now I think the question is more would you want to live without money and civilization. Honestly I dont think there is a person that would say yes to this.
There are to many hardships without money, heck there are to many still with money. In this day and age, and in civilization it is needed for everything. Even if you wanted to make that choice, you wouldnt be able to do it if you had children either.
So yes I think it could be done. In our civilation would it be healthy or easy? No

Hi there!
If we are going to talk about the use of money, well obviously we cannot live without it. Money is used all over the world from buying everything to exchanging of services. Economy lives because of money and so people without economy won't be able to live.
But if we're to talk about the deeper sense of living, like having a family and being loved. Having people around us that cares for us and believing in God, then money is not an object.
Ciao!

In my opinion, i would really think that thats a good idea, but i don't think its possible. Right now, everything depends on money, the laws, variables all that. I am sure that would mean less of everything. No war or whatsoever. You don't have to work, you have so much spare time on doing what you want, but it might cause resource problems if everything doesn't need money. Then everyone will be grabbing everything and taking airplanes for fun.

Forgetting all of our technical complications for a moment, regarding economies wordwide etc etc, there is an old saying ... "Money is the route of all evil".
My personal take on your question is simple for me to answer: For as long governments take, take and take, then squander the money THEY STOLE FROM US, then there will be GREED. For as long as there is greed, living without money will not be an option.
It is said by many experts in their field, that there are far more than enough natural resources STILL in the world for every single person to have more wealth than their individual wildest dreams could ever create.
Money, to me, is nothing more than a perception of a value BRAINWASHED into humans by the greedy filth and scum (mainly politicians) which we 'commoners' have had to suffer and endure in our each individual culture.
Not to put too fine a point on it ... I wouldn't piss on a politician if the scum was on fire - rot in hell you theiving shite!

back the old days people survive without money so im pretty sure we survive too without money.But since we are living now in this new world i have to say its very hard to survive without money and thats the reason why we need to get a job.

It's just impossible to live without money because money makes the world go round. How can we pay for food and buy our necessities if we dont have money. I know some people say it's the root of all evil, but people just cant survive without it. How else can we pay our bills? All the things necessary in this world. If we get sick, we buy our medicine and go to the doctor and pay with money.

I've often thought about this myself. But as everyone else is saying, without money everything would just fall apart. Think about it... there would be no reason to work. Sure some people would volunteer their time but think about how many people would sit around and do nothing. And of course there's the whole collapse of society thing.
