Money seems to have a big role in society; and people can’t do much or get far without it. Money is valuable in different ways, even when people don’t see it physically. In today’s society people must have faith in the government and in the banking system that their money is being handled in the proper manner; if not, then I would have to hide all of my money under a mattress or around my house. I have no clue what happens in the banks, or how they take care of money. I always thought money was simple. However, since being introduced to this assignment, the Yap Fei, US gold, French francs, Brazilian cruzeros, and debit accounts now seem similar. People don’t actually see their money being transferred. When someone gets paid, and isn’t handed cash, they don’t receive a physical check, the money’s all directly transferred to their bank account, and they just have to trust that they got more money.
