Hey MHA community, if anyone's ever interested in buying some figures or manga- I've got a bunch no longer interested in... (bye bye hyperfixation 😔). I am interested however in selling them! They've got no set price so I'm willing to hear anyone out on what price they think is fair ❤️❤️. They are used but in very good condition! Please DM if you are interested!! Payment will be accepted through cashapp ok byeeeeeeee

One of the most powerful methods to build relationships with people is to do them a favour, or owe them a favour.

If you ask for help, you owe them a favour.

Pros - it makes you likeable

Cons: that favour may be cashed in some day and you probably will be either inconvenienced or wildly bothered by the result.

If you give help, they owe you a favour.

Pros: You feel like GOD, or a GOOD PERSON, and one day you can call upon them for that favour

Cons: Calling in the favour has its consequences. You might get ghosted too.

Doing people favours and getting favours in return is by nature an unbalanced relationship.

Just as much as people love and hate favours, family and friends in particular seem entitled to them.

It is why your Mom always returns the neighbour's kheer with a box of laddoos. The box never returns empty.

This is exactly why money was invented. Money adds a layer of detachment that can help clean the relationship of its gunk.

So whenever you do someone any act of service, price it.

Put a price on the action they need you to take for them.

The toxic freeloaders will disappear and the genuine ones will stay and pay.

As much as people act self-righteous, everyone and everything has a price.

Figure that out and your days and life becomes much simpler.

A buddy I met on TikTok paid me to slab some stones for them.

This is the end result and a few of my favorites.

I’m open to trades and payment for slabbing out your stones too if you don’t have a wetsaw

Dm me for more information and pricing/ trading discussions

The bartering of Finger Talking not only makes me crave more Sign Language, but it makes me think of the bartering system of M.U.L.E.. Surely not a galactic standard, but useful graphically for larger auctions or smaller barters?

I haven't played M.U.L.E., but that does sound good! Visual representations in general seem pretty universal. For species that see the same way, at any rate. ("Hello, this chart is in a nice legible shade of blorangeen! What do you mean, you can't see that color?")

The Ancient Egyptian economy was based on the breadst standard!𓏏

Something I thought was interesting in Heavenly Delusion was that they're still using Yen bills post-collapse.

It makes some sense to me: there might not be a government giving the money authority anymore, but they're still moderately commonplace, relatively durable, and difficult to fake. Same as the bottlecaps in Fallout.

Whether it's paper or gold, money isn't about the value of the medium, it's about being used as a physical representation of owing a favor to somebody.

I'm so very fortunate for the friends I am making up here.

One of my friends has family with cherry orchards and she invited me to come get some tart cherries. I need so many for my jam and pies that I asked how much it would cost for whatever I need.

All they want in payment is a cherry pie!! Can you believe it?!

So I have a double pie in the oven to pay for my cherries. I'm planning on getting them tomorrow.

Hometown barter system is amazing. I'm VERY fortunate to have my friends.

I only know him from like the 1989 hawk and dove series, so i'm surprised to see him here.

My fiancé’s unemployment is getting cut off this month, and unfortunately my job doesn’t pay all our bills. He’s been looking for work for 6 months with no luck. We’ve economized to death and the hits keeps coming.

We won’t make rent next month, and probably won’t have enough for groceries to last this month (our EBT may also be cut off). We also have his dad and our dog to support/feed.

Please, anything will help.

I can also take commissions for watercolor, wood burning, string art, fleece tie blankets, or chainmail art/jewelry if barter makes anyone feel more inclined to donate! (I have more pictures too)
