… then we need to figure out how to barter long distance!

I just have to share this on long distance bartering.

So I sell part-time small solar systems to a connection in Zimbabwe. He buys the parts from me in my local currency. He then sells it on by taking cow/s as payment as where he sells, in the bush, there is no currency yet the people do have satellite dishes, TV’s fridges and cellphones, so they need solar panels, inverters and batteries.

He then in turn sells the cow/s, about +- U$2,000 a cow, and converts it to the currency I require.

The ingenuity is priceless.
