The L Currency
Alternative currencies are exactly what the name suggests, an alternative means to account for, enable and supplement exchanges of goods and services.
Having regard to L:
  • L50 is paid into the account of each member when they sign-up to tgl and accept the Charter
  • thereafter L is earned in the Skills Exchange by members choosing to teach, give or learn
  • L is debt-free because it is not lent into existence and is not repayable to the L Bank
  • its value comes because it is created by the choices of members to collaborate and learn
  • when accepted in a community, it provides increased liquidity to boost local activities and trade
  • e.g. when traders accept 20% in L for goods, local prices reduce by 20% in conventional money
  • naturally, people earning L10 an hour in the Skills Quarter will choose to shop for L-Bargains
  • so, trade is attracted to local businesses and away from supermarkets and large businesses
  • as L increases in acceptability, traditional money stays in and supports the local economy
  • similarly, the cost of local public services can reduce in line with the % acceptable in L
  • local people can collaborate to deliver their own local services as projects for hands-on learning
  • any increase in supply and circulation of L is founded on the creative choices of the local people
  • thus, L supports 'bottom-up' self-empowerment and hands-on, collaborative life-long learning

We invite other alternative debt-free banking systems to join us and collaborate. We can provide a 'mirror' of our banking systems to extend the variety of alternatives that can operate within our 'Village' and in the world outside.


We can work together for a debt-free world here and now!
