Default Money Makes Me Mad!

(seemed to fit best here)

i have always been fascinated by the history of money. here is a poorly produced, but interesting video about the origins of money and the federal reserve. it seems kind of conspiratorial, but be open-minded and let me know what you think. i hate money. i really really hate it. anyhow, this was left by somebody else at my site....

Hating money is like hating hammers or bowls. It is a tool.

It is the misusers and abusers of the tool that deserve the hate, not the tool itself.

Well it's a tool that does a lot of harm. That is my opinion. Watch the video and you'll see my point. I am talking about empty money that has no value.

Money and I have had an ongoing love affair since my first Monopoly game when I was 6 years old.

I could never hate $$ :squeezle:

I would agree though, that money gives you more options and more opportunity to screw up your life. Living a meager existence is a simple life, the more options you have the more complications will arise.

Ah, don't get me wrong- I love to spend it. That's just a tiny part of the problem :)
