Raw Food: Worth Its Weight In Gold [Economic Benefits of Healthful Living: Diet and One's Personal/FAmily Budget] (WAS: Diet on a budget)

[Guest guest]

Hi Blanc, and thanks for asking! Yes, that was back in the 1980s, and at

that time I had a very different values system. in 1982 I received an MBA

from the Kellogg School at Northwestern University, widely regarded in the

business community as the top school in the U.S.A. I came to Silicon Valley

and began working in the world of high-technology startup companies.

Eventually, I started my own little software company. For quite some time, I

had no one else to support, zero debt, and I thought I loved " living well " .

So I did.

 

In 1997 I was introduced to raw foods, and I was beginning to tire of high

tech and of the whole " corporate scene " . At that time I learned a few

things, began exploring inside in many new ways, and chose to transform my

entire life into a ministry. I have lived in this way ever since. That is

what I " do " .

 

If you wish, I'm happy to share more, or not if that seems sufficient.

 

Best regards,

Elchanan

Thousands and thousands, wow. Pretty soon, you're talking cash. What was

your occupation, investment banker? Heh. And what do you do now, if I may

ask, besides the Path of Health discussion site?

Yes, this does answer my question, but it would be interesting to know

more about your transformation. I heard a speaker some weeks ago

refer to the religion of eating raw that some people practice, so it's

a bit amusing that you would be living a combination of eating raw and

a ministry. Which was first, or did one lead to the other?
