from a red paper clip to a house

Sunday, January 7, 2007



once in a while, someone or the other comes up with such a simple yet extraordinary idea that it leaves everyone thinking "wow! Thats amazing. why didn't that idea occur to me?".



in case you haven't heard or read him, i'm talking about idea behind One Red Paper Clip (trading up, item by item, from a red paper clip, eventually hoping to get a house).



head over to wikipedia or his blog to read how kyle macdonald bartered his way from a single paperclip to his dream home in which he now lives in Canada in a series of trades spanning almost exactly one year.



or start swapping now over here and start your little bartering adventure like this guy.



who knows, you might get lucky.
