Mand bytter papirclip til hus
Kan du huske den Anders And-historie, hvor Anders bilder onkel Joakim ind, at penge er afskaffet, og al betaling nu skal foregå med fisk?
Og hvor resultatet er, at den nu aldeles pengeløse Joakim straks begynder at bytte ting til andre, mere værdifulde - hvorefter han ender med at have en hel vognladning fisk, som han i fortvivlelse over de nye penges lugt og manglende egnethed til pengebad ender med at få læsset ud over Anders' hus ...
En mand i Canada har besluttet at gøre ham kunsten efter - og vil bruge Internettet til at bytte en papirclip til et hus, han kan bo i:
A Canadian man who set out to trade a paper clip to get a house says he is coming close to achieving his dream.Link til historien på BBC.
After a year of swapping items on the internet, Kyle MacDonald, 26, has been offered a year in a house in Phoenix, Arizona, rent-free.
Mr MacDonald, who lives in Montreal, initially exchanged his paper clip for a fish-shaped pen.
(...)
Mr MacDonald swapped the pen for a ceramic doorknob, which he in turn traded for a camping stove.
This was followed by a generator, bartered for an "instant party package": an empty beer keg, a neon Budweiser sign and a promise to fill the keg - offered by a man in New York.
The beer package went to a Montreal DJ, in exchange for a snowmobile.

But Mr MacDonald is not taking his eyes off the big prize: "I'm going to keep trading for bigger or better things until I get a house."
