Synopsis

The book introduces a group of people who do something different from the rest of society: they share their money, although they do not live in the same city, nor are they held together by family bonds. Several times a year they come together and regulate their financial livelihood of the next months. This model is called financial coop. Originated from the experiment of a WG in 1998, the joint bank account has become everyday life for the now seven members. Their regular exchange about money, material values and above all their own needs has made them experts. For what money means in our society, what it achieves, but also impossible. And for what undiscovered free space can create a different kind of economy. In this interim balance of their life-time experiment, they give insights into what their reinvention of a solidarity community that stands across family and state means: for partners, parents and children, for their attitude to gainful work and unpaid activities, young talent planning, age security. It becomes clear - this rearrangement of your own conditions is not so radical and yet that: a revolution in slow motion.
