Living Off Craigslist For A Year
Jason Paul, unsuccessful at finding a post-college job by sending resumes en masse, decided to live off of Craigslist for a year; creating Living On Craigslist to document his experience of holding himself to the following rules:
- I will start with $2,500 that I’ve saved during college
- I will have a car, a phone, a computer and cameras to document the trip
- I am not allowed to live out of my car
- I am not allowed to live with someone I know for longer than a week at the beginning of each city
- I am allowed one large bag containing clothes and a few staple foods
- I am not allowed to initiate contact with someone unless it is through an online interaction
