In 2005, a Canadian guy named Kyle MacDonald started with a single red paperclip and set himself one goal: keep trading until he owned a house. It took a year and fourteen trades. Paperclip to pen, pen to doorknob, doorknob to camp stove, all the way up to a movie role and finally a farmhouse in Saskatchewan.
Everything has value to the right person. You just have to find them.
That story is why we built Paperclip. Same idea, but instead of a year of blog posts you can do it in a few swipes. Your clutter is someone else's next favourite thing. And theirs might be yours.
Download Paperclip and start trading with people in your area. It's free and it's local.
