Okay, hold up. I’ve been sitting here, trying to take this video seriously—like really giving it a fair shot—and then y’all dropped the absolute economic blasphemy of pricing a WHOLE house in fish. Like…fish??? Excuse me? We’re not bartering for a loaf of sourdough in a medieval dockside market, we’re talking about a structured real estate transaction, my dude. You don’t walk into a bank with a sack of mackerel and expect a pre-approval letter. Imagine the appraisal: “Yep, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath colonial is worth about… 87,000 sardines and one slightly aggressive tuna.” Be so serious.
And let’s talk practicality. Fish ROT. Fish STINK. You show up to closing with 200,000 trout in the back of a truck and suddenly you’re not a homeowner—you’re a health hazard. The local HOA is filing complaints before escrow even clears. Plus, how do you make change? “Oh sorry, I don’t have a full halibut—can I give you three shrimp and a cod filet?”
No. This is why we invented coins. Durable. Stackable. Not pungent. Coins have historical precedent, standardized value, and don’t require refrigeration. Wanna talk real economic infrastructure? Give me interest rates in nickels, not in herring per annum. You think the Fed’s gonna raise anchovy rates next quarter? Be serious.
So yeah, respectfully, fish-based mortgages are where I draw the line. My house will be priced in coins, preferably shiny ones, and I won’t be taking seafood as legal tender unless I’m buying a boat or a really shady fishing license.
