RE: Barter and Gifts in the Age of Steem

in #steem7 years ago

The barter, although still have a presence in some places often become a disadvantage of the parties in cases of chaotic economies, in my country there are people who have changed their homes for a used car and overvalued, because many times it is easier to sell A car that a house.. They change jewelry and appliances for food, and stop counting, we've just receded...

Good point. When forced to make an exchange, one can lose significant value.

Yes, so many times people take advantage of the ones they need.
