Default Barter Up From A Cell Phone to a Porsche
Trading up from a cell phone to a Porsche. Not bad! I love this story for a couple reasons. It is the essence of economic exchange. Each transaction resulted in both parties getting what they wanted. He turned essentially nothing into quite something. And the gubment didn't get a penny.
