A conversation with Aaron. We talk about: why Aaron quit his job, working fewer than five days a week and making only as much money as you need, lifestyle creep, Aaron's new lifestyle, college debt and the possibility of student debt cancellation, how Aaron generates income, working less and going to college, environmentalism and a low energy society (lean economics), unplugging from technology and not paying attention to the news, working for passion rather than money, the resiliency of communes, whether the progress of technology is helpful or harmful to humans, my grievances with techno-optimists and the necessity of environmental alarmists, and books we've recently read.
