I have spent 25 years engaged in Banking Systems Engineering. It's rudimentary but it's honest and it works.
Most everyone understand how a Local Employment-Trading System helps the butcher, the baker, the dentist, trade their employment back and forth with a local currency.
And most have seen the advantages of a network for intertrading between the world's thousands of independent LETS branches. But more and more people have seen the vision of intertrading between the world's millions of independent LETS web page accounts so timecredits earned in one place can be spent anywhere else.
All of them are familiar with converting to the Time Standard of Money. Most are familiar with the operation of their local LETS systems. I consulted the list and wrote to the LETS people who lived in cities on my itinerary. At the suggested European rate of 5 Hours per day, I lived as guest in pent-houses to tents indebted for IOUs worth equivalent accommodations back home in Ottawa Canada.
You can shop with your timecredit line there too. Just announce your own personal LETS timecurrency bank account address in public and offer to start timetrading.
