Hey kyle,
i'm from BraSil, and discovered your website yesterday.I liked it a lot! First of all I thought you were crazy, but this crazy man will trade a paperclip for a house! Very good idea to put portuguese version of the first page.
I would like to trade something with you, but a snowmobile won't be useful here in Brasil.

Keep on trading and you will get a house!
I hope!

Bye,
Gabriel

Hi Kyle:
While reading my german news-service Tagesschau here in Mexico, I found an article about your red-paperclip and : I liked it!
Hope I'll find the time a little later to help you out with the spanish translation, but while this happens, why not have a look at my blog and start trading for a red pot?
Good luck for you, and hope to see you folks around my site soon!
Best regards, Nic

hi kyle,
annie here. jon repp from komo 1000 just came to my house to interview me about our trade. i still have my wonderful fish pen. it was great. i told him how charismatic you are and my initial interest in answering your craigs list post for one red paper clip. i mentioned its important to think outside the box and the importance of challenging the concept we have of value. you may want to add my email to the contact info because i'm not sure by googling me one could find it. if someone is interested in trading for my pen i am open. i am interested in getting a group of traders together to trade for land for a community based on the barter system. cool beans on the snow mobile. i passed on the mercedes to my son yesterday for his birthday so it's no longer available, think you may have surpassed it already anyway. big hugs and kisses

Hi Kyale, I just saw your interview on CNN here in Dallas. I thought this was funny and thought it would be a good idea to checkout your website. I am an Internet marketer and my website is http://firesale.portalshops.net
This is a good idea and I am sure copycats will emerge very soon. Keep up with your good ideas

Hey man, nice going on your journey. I have one of my own. I am selling a Red paper Clip on eBay. I'm trying to become a big hit like you. I'm not saying its yours or anything. Not trying to take away your fame or anything. I just want to see what a short fat guy can do these days.

Hi Kyle,

I heard your radio interview on San Francisco's NRG 92.7 this morning and came to check out your website. I had a blast reading your blog and seeing the pics. Good stuff!

I'm a Canadian living here in SF... props to you for taking all those comments about the "hinterland," "nothing to do in Montreal" and Canada being "behind the times" with grace and good humor. They just don't know how good it is back home!!

Hey, just wanted to let you know that a local radio station (104.1, WJRR, Monsters in the Morning) did a one day red paper clip inspired bit this past week. They sent out 3 personalities into the Orlando area with various stuff from around the office. The host Russ Rollins repeatedly referred to your website and why you decided to start it. You've reached Orlando. Great Job...Ken

Hello Kyle....
I want to let you know you are one of those bright spots in a world that has become so congested with garbage. You made my day special by allowing me to know that simple and nice and kind and fun still exists. As someone else said; "isn't it interesting that a small thing like a red paperclip can bring people together?." Thank you again..

You are an example of the power of individual initiative. Many of us could learn something from your undertaking. Good luck to you in the future.

Hey, we used to play bigger or better all the time when I was younger. We always started with a penny and often times would end up with something that our youth group could actually use: a TV, video game system, a pool, and all kinds of food. I believe we even got a car one time (broken down, of course, but fixable), but I never would have imagined that someone could get a house out of the deal. How great!

Anonymous said...

Kyle,

I saw your story on 20/20 last night and I couldn't believe it!! I heard about it when you got one years free rent and did not think much of it. But to get a WHOLE HOUSE to call yours in ONE YEAR??? WOW!!!

Any commom person that stats from zero will not have a house in a year. It takes a whole lifetime, 30 years or so to get a house paid off.You got your self a house in ONE YEAR. Incredible!!!


You are amazing!!

Congratulations, and I hope you are still pursuing the funtential in life, you certainly reminded all of us of its importance and the importance of the value of human relationships.

Hey Kyle,

Just finished reading your book about an hour ago whilst travelling around NZ and thought I'd let you know I really enjoyed it :)

However, I did immediately give it to a random stranger, a German in fact, and told them to pass it on to the next person. Whilst not strictly trading, I hoped it carried on with the spirit on your adventure.

All the best,

ps, I hope by passing it on I don't take money directly from your pocket!
