By the time I turned 50, BARTER had afforded me a fantastic lifestyle. I had owned five Rolls Royces (and a lot of other great toys). I had just purchased a winter home in Naples, Florida and joined an exclusive country club. Just two years earlier, I had bought a home in an upscale area in Ohio, almost 6,000sf on four acres. My house warming gift to myself? A Roll Royce Silver Shadow,” shares McDowell McDowell has been seen in and on: Consumers Can Now Barter Online ATX is a unique program (fashioned after B2B barter groups) using Trade Dollars as a swap currency.
