Some of us aren't cut out for "normal life."

If you crave nature, freedom, adventure, and work that matters-rather than just paying the bills for a life you never chose-then you might be ready to become dirtbag rich.

Drawing from the "dirtbag" tradition of pursuing outdoor bliss through creative self-sufficiency, this book charts an unconventional way of living that includes both security and flexibility, connection and independence, and service and self-actualization.

Whether you're jettisoning a life that's not working or just getting started, the message of Dirtbag Rich is clear: You don't have to play the same game as everyone else. You can have a life where you wake up and decide what you want to do, every day. You really can.
