Hi, Charles and others! I have a question I'm not sure where to place, so I'm going to try here. I used to be in the NAAS Mighty Network Community that Charles hosted. I thought that might be the best place for it, so I could rally some communal answers, but maybe some of you will see it here.
Hi, Charles and others! I have a question I'm not sure where to place, so I'm going to try here. I used to be in the NAAS Mighty Network Community that Charles hosted. I thought that might be the best place for it, so I could rally some communal answers, but maybe some of you will see it here.
I'm wondering about practical financial advice, specifically around the ideas of "savings" and "budgeting," if one is rooted in and truly wants to live into "sacred economics." I haven't heard Charles speak on these anywhere, specifically. Even after taking the majority of his "Living in the Gift" course, these are two things I'm curious about at an individual, practical level when one wants to be "anti-growth" and live into the gift economy. I have some assumptions based off of philosophies shared in Sacred Economics and elsewhere, but still would love to hear his thoughts on it. If anyone has seen any videos, writings, podcasts, or anything else where you've heard Charles speak to this, would you let me know? Or, if there are other resources you've drawn from in order to formulate your own values and practical ways of being, I'd love to hear those, too! Grateful to any of you who respond!
Just realized it would likely have been more appropriate to post on something related to the topic, but just found the most recent post and put this question there. Sincere apologies for being off-topic, specifically around this piece. But I don't believe any of your recent writings are related, so again just wasn't sure where to voice it. I hope you'll forgive the intrusion on this thread!
