A new idea for an alternative currency could be that instead of paying everything with money, we just provide services for each other. When you are young and have no experience in more important jobs, like doctors, or lawyers, or teachers, you can start by doing simple jobs such as carrying things or filling out papers. As you age, you can begin learning how to do more things such as working with pets, babysitting, computer working, book-keeping etc. Of course
this system only replaces money, bartering item with item is still OK. For example, a farmer grows tomatoes, then gives some to his helpers in exchange for helping him. The helpers then do whatever they want with the tomato, they can exchange it for other items or services.
If you ever complete a service for one another without receiving anything in return, you get a free pass to any service of the same level of hardness. These pa**** can either be handed in to an office for any item you want, or to other people who will give you a service (and they in turn will receive the one item they want)
For example, if you needed to get a surgery, you could either
A) offer services afterwards
B) or let them get a pass for you not helping, (it's their choice)
C) Use a pass
Last thing, there are different types of pa****, for different more or less difficult types of jobs.
E.G. You can't give your friend a bike you built, then use the pass to get a mansion.
