In preparation for the "Odyssey" that is starting, Chris McCandless donated $24,000 to charities, prepared 5 kilos of rice, and put 123 dollars in his pocket.
We can arrive at this answer because:
Chris McCandless was a young American who decided to leave civilization and live isolated in the wild.
He did this with almost no correct equipment to face nature and without enough food and water.
He came from an upper-middle-classfamily, but he was tired of consumerism and the futility of society, so he decided to start this adventure.
He did this right after graduating from college. After graduation, he donated $24,000 to charities, prepared 5 kilos of rice, and began his odyssey with $123 in his pocket.
Chris McCandless spent two years living in the wild, keeping in touch with no one, but he died of starvation after that time.
