Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

I just loaned Julio in Columbia $25 to employ a vet to insert a hidden pocket in his donkey for cocaine transportation, apparently the rewards are about 300%..


No really I loaned salasio $25 to get a chuff-cutter... I don't know what a chuff-cutter is, I know I now want a chuff-cutter, does anyone know of any chuff-cutter-mongers in the uk, I'd like, obviously, to try chuff-cutting with a chuff-cutter before fully committing myself to the enterprise

Oh and I don't know if you've noticed that all the farmers in Ecuador live by the same lake

then you can reinvest with someone else. It's a virtuous circle. And you can give Kiva vouchers as gifts to those you have no idea what to buy  :thumbsup:

It's a good scheme, seen pics of the results, gave my sister a voucher last year and she has given them more.  It's perpetual money.
