You are very wise. And I agree with many things, but this argument did not change my convinction that money means freedom but it did indeed alter it.

I will have to work for low money for others without money. And if you want to live off-grid then good luck building your own ax to build your cabin.

Good luck hunting animals without tools & knowledge which costs money.

Freedom is deciding, freedom is to live like you want. And as I see it you don't have much of a choice nor the ability to live like you want without money.

So we are discussing our ideas of freedom.

But what is really the definition of freedom? Let's look on Wiki.

1. the power or right to act, speak, or think as one wants. "we do have some freedom of choice"

2. the state of not being imprisoned or enslaved.

To definition 1: You won't be able to say or act like you want without money living in a society. And if you want to live off-grid you need money too.

To definition 2: Without money you will not be ablee to defend yourself and the state will give you a lawyer (bad for you) or the police will emprison you (also bad for you). Money will give you the option to flee, fight or get the best lawyer, it will also enable you to bail out of jail or to flee / fight.

You can not be free without money.
