“Money is a matter of belief, even faith: belief in the person paying us; belief in the person issuing the money he uses or the institution that honours his cheques or transfers. Money is not metal. It is trust inscribed. And it does not seem to matter much where it is inscribed: on silver, on clay, on paper, on a liquid crystal display.”
-Niall Ferguson, The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World: 10th Anniversary Edition
That is maybe one of the reasons and definitions of money.
It’s not just a tangible thing, but most importantly, it has an emotional or intangible aspect.
Money is important but we should know the reason, why there is money.
The problem is not about the money but how you spend it.
This is why financial literacy is important, but being financially literate is not enough.
Doing things and why you do what you do is the first step to acquiring it.
