money is a medium of exchange..essentially a promisory note in exchange for goods and services. it's representational....the ocntiued passing around of promisory notes. if not for paper money, people would have to lug around gold or some other valuble metal to distribute as legal tender. it's not the money that's the problem.....it's people's attitude towards it and their false sense that it can be a panacea for all of their underlying problems, fears, and inadequacies.

Some people are workers and some people reach for the sky. I didn't have a lot growing up, but never thought of myself being poor, We had more family time, that you don't see anymore. Neighborhoods, You knew everyone, Not today . Anyone who had money. didn't live in our neighborhood,so it did'nt bother us. Would I change it never,We were rich in more ways that the rich were. We had friends because they wanted to be with us, not because we have money. You never go back, You go forward and make it better.

Look I'm someone who came from very little and now I have well without giving monetary specifics, I'm very successful. I believe being rich means you have a lot of money but for me I would rather be considered successful because, I make a lot of money doing things I really enjoy. I also give to charities and help ,when I can, my friends reach their goals of success. I'm very materialistic so I also don't mind being considered rich without having worked for it. Oh and when i say materialistic I mean I judge myself by the things I possess not others. I judge people on how they treat others and me. So don't get me wrong I'm not that shallow. People who have a lot of money always say money can't buy you happiness. But I think it can help. Sorry just being honest.

Easier than coins, gold and trading. Yes we could survive through trading and bartering. No money doesnt make us rich.

Money has no cosmic or spiritual importance, unfortunately it is the worldly measure of wealth.

without money there would be choas and we have enough of that. and back then people had used other things as forms of money, like trading cattle and other goods.
