A different kind of wealth, ft. Jon Jandai

Episode 484 Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description

Jon Jandai of Pun Pun Organic Farm and I sat down for an in-person dialogue when I visited Chiang Mai, Thailand, back in March of this year.

It builds on our podcast conversation from years ago, during which he shared about how he grew up in rural Thailand, was told by people on TV that rural people are backwards and poor, and consequently moved into the city to work a job to make more money.

But that led to an eventual revelation.

As Jon reflected in our conversation: "I thought, ‘Why did I work 10 hours per day in the city, yet not make enough to feed one person, but when I came back to the land, I worked only half an hour per day and I had enough food to feed six people?”

Thus seeded Jon's pathway to simple living.

Join us in this discussion as we chat about a different kind of wealth and security, how Jon views GDP growth as a sign of what we've lost, and more.
