Paperclip To A Record Contract
Has anyone heard this story on the news. A guy started out with a red paperclip, and after 9 months of trading he now has a record contract, forgotton how much it was worth, was just wondering whether anyone had more information on it, as it seems like a pretty interesting read to me. Thanking you kindly<3

He has a contract on a house or something. He's looking to trade up until he actually owns a house if I recall correctly.

Re: Paperclip To A Record Contract
This was on the news here yesterday too. Probably exactly the same footage. On the other side of the world. Right into everyones home at the same time.
Isn't that odd? I find it a little surreal.

Re: Paperclip To A Record Contract
My immediate feeling is that Golden Palace will intervene somewhere along the way in the next week or so, buy a house and trade it for whatever he has at the time. The site is reaching the point now where the fame and potential advertising coverage are on a par with a cheese toastie.

Re: Paperclip To A Record Contract
cheese toasties are actually quite magnificent, especially with a tad bit of mayonnaise.
