Money you mean the illusion stuff they say they put in my account and then vanishes? Seriously I was reading that one of the earliest trade goods was flint and flint type stones. There are mines for flint in England.

The premise that money evolved from barter (as proposed by A Smith) has long been thought untrue. Barter to money has not been found in any known society, whereas debt systems have proved more or less ubiquitous. David Graeber's 'Debt: the first 5000 years' has the argument. Debt was regularly forgiven in jubilees after the death of kings and such. The Sumerians knew agricultural/business and finance cycles were out of kilter. Compound interest doubles debt more or less by dividing the interest rate into 70 - 7 years at 10%, 12 years at 6%. - thus $6 million in material and wages to build a bridge and $6.4 million in finance charges. It's actually very difficult to get people to discuss money because they think they know what it is. On Thursday, 16 January 2014 15:14:02 UTC, Allan Heretic wrote: > > No interest?
