James Shipley is trying to trade some paperclips for something better, then trade that for something else and so on and so on until he owns a canal boat.
So far he’s traded 1) paperclips for a bouncy ball 2) for a kids’ book 3) for a golf bag 4) for gym equipment 5) for a radio-controlled plane 6) for a motorbike 7) for a speedboat.
He’s not doing too badly! James continues to blag his way to a narrowboat at www.onepaperclip.blogspot.com.
