do you think the world could survive without money..?

Question

honestly do you think our country would survive without money? not even a dollar what do you think would happen if all the money in this world would vanish? what would happen?

Answer 1

Nothing. People will start living as they used to be when there was no money. To be very frank, WWI & II left many countries and families and individuals without money. Literally without money.

People will be more cooperative, they will start believing more in God, have a healthy lifestyle of working from morning to evening and by night fall go home and spend time with family.

It would be good. But only if EVERY dollar and penny and kind and nature of money vanishes from earth.

Answer 2

No, not the way the world is now. If money were to just up and disappear, so would our entire society! Riots, civil war, mayhem, wars! The world would come to one giant, screeching halt! Nations would struggle to find another source of "currency"....people would struggle to retain possessions while others struggled to gain possessions. Food, water, anything could become the new currency. Well, in a way, it wouldn't be so different, in the end, than it is now. But the initial reaction would certainly be terrifying.
Great Question!

Answer 3

now do you mean like 'from the beginning of time' no money or like it just 'up and went'?? well if your talking about if money never existed, of course we would survive. money is nothing more than a form of currency. im sure us humans would have found another form of currency, if not, we would have no choice but to be like our ancestors and trade... now if money just up and went, no we would not survive. sure the united states would have a clean slate and not owe the whole 9804598015189712378923 dollars we are in debt but there would be no form of 'purchasing' items. how would we get our supplies? steal? it would turn chaotic

Answer 4

It might, but I've never tried it. But to me it would seem the world would be a little less corrupt. But it would also mean we wouldn't get as much stuff done. That's why we have money. It's called "equivalent exchange." & that, my dear, is why we both have problems, & we prosper.

Answer 5

if is just vanished....our whole structure of a culture would crumble. There would be mass disorder.

If we never had money......there would of been another means of payment and exhange for services and products.

Answer 6

A sneak preview would be socialism under Hillary Clinton or the rest of the liberal democrats .

Answer 7

No way! People are to use to it! That only worked on Star Trek.

Answer 8

how would you pay for the internet connection that you used to type this question in?

oranges? hard manual labor? world's oldest profession?

Answer 9

Sure. It would go back to bartering. i.e. your love for a sack of beans, etc.

Answer 10

of course it could.
