Issue CCXX - November 28, 2009
The mistaken identification of wealth with money results in yet another damaging fallacy: the idea that the only legitimate “employment” is work performed for somebody else in exchange for money. Mr. Stolyarov refutes this fallacy here and seeks to combat the stigma that is often exhibited toward individuals who choose to work without much, or any, monetary compensation. This video is the companion to this essay.
