My name is Kyle MacDonald and I traded one red paperclip for a house. I started with one red paperclip on July 12 2005 and 14 trades later, on July 12, 2006 I will trade with the Town of Kipling Saskatchewan for a house located at 503 Main Street.

I saw this one the news a few months ago. It was truly amazing to see what he traded up for from starting out with just one little red paperclip.

Q: Where do you live?
A: Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Anyway, this is amazing! I can't see all of his trade history though, where is it located at?

I kept getting a "server is too busy" message when trying to refresh the thread this morning, do you guys need a new server? Anyway, yes, it is amazing to see people do stuff like this... I am trying to think up something like this to ask for sponsorship, but I don't want to give it away yet.

That is pretty crazy. I never heard of that because he is North of the border. That is simply amazing.

Although this is a good story, I reckon it would be a shitty movie..
