SURVIVAL

 SURVIVAL



Survival in difficult situations is very necessary.

One day, I tried to survive in the dorm. I have no money so I have to figure out how to survive.

1. Social interact

If you have a troble like me, you need to socializing to each other. I have many friends in dorm so I didn't worry about all thing because I can ask them for help.

2. Make sure you have money savings.

Make sure you use your savings in an emergency, if it's just a snack, it's better to choose to be patient.




3) Seek Shelter in a Community Sharing Similar Values

Have you ever heard of an Ecovillage? They’re communities that offer substantial living, or ways of surviving, where many of them choose to go without using money as the main method to meet their needs.

There are hundreds of these villages scattered across the globe where people depend upon one another, as well as using nature and their surrounding environment to meet these needs.  

4) Offer to Work for Free Lodging 

You can also seek out work in exchange for free lodging. This is another example of how to live without money that could actually work for you. There are a handful of places around the world that offer accommodations in exchange for the work that you do.   

5) Head Out Into the Wild

When the weather is decent, camping out underneath the stars is a great way in which you can crash for the night. Getting closer to nature and further away from a society that’s controlled by money is what it’s about anyway.    

6) Barter for Everything

People that choose to live without money, heavily rely upon the bartering system in exchange for their everyday needs. This includes food, supplies, modes of transportation, and many other things.

This is also one way of ensuring that nothing is wasted and people can afford what they need.  To save on utilities, you can barter with neighbors to get internet for free at home.

7) Repair Things for Free  

Instead of throwing things away after they become broken, make it a habit to find another use for it, or find ways of repairing them for free. The internet, especially youtube, has several videos on ways to fix stuff. You may even find the tools and supplies to fix them for nothing.   

8) Go Freegan

If you’re looking to find food and other basic supplies without relying solely on money or a local food pantry, a freegan lifestyle is one option. This means that you’re willing to go “dumpster diving”, a type of lifestyle that makes sure that nothing is being wasted.  

9) Bathing for Free

Living life without any money requires you to step outside your comfort zone in several circumstances. Finding a place to bathe or shower may prove to be one of them. You have the option to bathe in a river, lake, or stream to add to that adventure. A wood-burning shower or a truck stop are several other alternatives to maintain good hygiene. 

It’s also worth noting that our bodies are made up of organic material, so it’s interesting that we think we need to use expensive chemicals and soaps to keep our bodies clean. All you really need is hot water and not all those cleaning agents that have ingredients that prove to be harmful to your skin and health over time.  

10) Find the Right Resources

You’ve undoubtedly heard the phrase, “another man’s junk, is another man’s treasure,” but have you ever heard of freegle or freecycle? The whole purpose of their sites is to see to it that nothing is wasted and thrown away. 

Everything can be reused, and many people are able to use these resources to meet their needs. There are stories where people were able to snag a car, boats, refrigerators, and furniture.   

Conclusion

Whether or not you are seeking to live a life completely without money, one thing is certain. There are several tasks that you do on a daily basis, that don’t have to cost you money. 

By using several of these methods and tactics, it opens you up to more possibilities of how to live without money. What are some other examples you’ve discovered, where you didn’t need to spend money to meet one of your basic needs? How do you plan on living without money?
