인플레이션이 심한 아르헨티나에서는
본인들의 구매력을 지키기 위해
월급을 받으면 벽돌을 사고,
소바가 필요할 때 그 벽돌을 공사장에 팔아서 받은 돈으로 소비를 하는 방식으로
본인의 도난받은 구매력을 보존한다고 합니다.
'블럭'을 이용해 구매력을 보존합시다
“Bricks—actual bricks, not stacks of cash—are another common savings mechanism, especially for working-class Argentinians. The value of bricks is fairly stable, and they’re useful to a family building out their house. Argentina doesn’t have a mortgage industry, and thus buying a pallet of bricks each time you get a paycheck is an effective way to pay for your home in installments. (Bricks aren’t fully monetized, in that I don’t think people buy bricks and then sell them later, so people only use this method of saving when they actually have something they want to use the bricks for.)”
