A crash course in changing the world.
Many women have their own job and they are working, but some women don't have the job and they are working at home. The reason that women don't have job is women have to do housework. A long tim ago, the men's job was hunting the animal for their family and women's job was do housework. This traditional is still continues. This current world, we need women to work.

One of the example of alternative currency is barter. Barter is trading things with things, for example I want to trade my laptop with the watch that I want. Barter have advantages and disadvantages. One of the…

My mission this week as part of Mission 5, The Future of Money, was to make at least one economic transaction using a non-traditional currency, platform or exchange system I've never used before.

However, I won't be able to try an alternative currency system or make a micro-loan right now. Thus, I chose to try a bartering system. Even though it is not a bartering system…
