What we’re discovering is that it builds social capital and value in a most unexpected way and we are feeling richer and richer and spending less and less money. In fact, we are giving money away more and more to support other groups in the community that are doing things we want to support. While it seems obvious there has to be a bottom limit to this process, it actually seems to be steadily increasing.

We have another friend, Chris, who also seems to have tapped into this. He said a few days ago that he now owns properties all over the place in beautiful locations. What he means is that he has social contacts with their owners and he has established that he is always welcome to take his campervan and go and stay at any of these places. It is this sort of thing, where it is not money but something quite different that builds and grows into deep wealth.

It would fit in nicely with my senior thesis topic (that being, the philosophy of money and how a money-culture shapes our worldviews).
