We could use them as money, but I would think it would not be a good idea to do that as they would get caught on things and pieces would break off. There is no real weight of them, so the change machines couldn't be used. Every coin type machine would have to be changed to accomodate the paper clip. Very costly for all the companies. I do not think this would be a good idea.

I don' t know it might work, they could make it out of a special type of metal so it could'nt be counterfited. If they ever did do that I would be rich! haha!

Another one of those brainless questions. If you can't figure that one out by yourself, I doubt anyone can help you.
