If money was replaced by skills as currency...

[Eleanor ace]

What would you pay with? I asked my friends the other day and their answers were give financial advise (she's a trainee accountant), baked goods, gardening, health and wellbeing motivation and dance lessons .
Sooo, what would your currency be?

 

[Mazzy17]

Baking, decorating for Christmas, hugging! Keeping motivated. Erm...

 

[Kay_Baby]

Financial advice and tax returns, cooking and baking, planning spreadsheets (I'm obsessed with them, and yes I already have one on the go for Christmas)

 

[wishuwerehere]

Baking, or sorting/tidying/alphabetising. I love tidying kichen cupboards lol.

 

[Pearls18]

Archiving, cataloging, information compliance advice (DPA, FOI), some history if it was covered by my degree topics ha, writing CVs/job applications, military marital quarter guideline advice lol, breastfeeding, oh and all things Stanley Kubrick.

 

[wishuwerehere]

^^ i always forget i have a degree...i suppose i could barter biochemical knowledge but it doesn't seem that likely someone will need to know about it day to day!

 

[modified]

Um.. taking photos.. budgeting money (not sure how that'd work if money wasn't around though haha).. writing lists..

 

[Eleanor ace]

Ah you guys have loads! I can't think of anything- I would starve to death in a week

 

[Pearls18]

I'm not sure how useful my skills would be if we've got to the point of not using currency anymore

I would be hanging onto my husband for dear life though as he'd be good at the whole hunting, defending, first aid thing lol.

I'm a nurse, I suppose I could dress a wound in exchange for food
I don't have many other skills.........I can make origami birds that flap their wings, do that in exchange of electricity.......fair exchange? I think so

 

[kealz]

Good question. I'm a teacher so perhaps i could offer private tutoring for the children of the electricity provider etc? Failing that, i'm quite good at crafts and love making wedding stationary so would happily do that. x

 

[MrsPear]

I could give advice about where to go in Japan, or teach Japanese.

I could also change a wound dressing and give you an injection.

I would be looking for someone who can cook delicious meals with leg ulcers who has a constant need for injections and Japanese holiday advice.

 

[Pearls18]

I'm bossy and a good delegator so maybe I could be Queen of the World

 

[CRWx]

I'd be buggered!

 

[Beckettshades]

Flute, clarinet, sax or piano lessons, Christmas organising, sociology info (doubt that would be of much use) that's about it really. X

 

[Lauraxamy]

Yeah I'd be buggered too I think

 

[Tasha]

Is it bad that the only thing I could think of was sexual favours?

 

[CRWx]

 

[Noodlebear]

I'd be screwed! I guess I'd have to offer chores of some sort? Babysitting etc? Lol!

-The first thing I thought of was sexual favours too ha.
