When building a wall with stones, the large stones are stacked, the small stones are filled in the gaps, and the spaces between the stones are filled with smaller stones and the final layer of sand. Although the elements that make up the wall vary in size, their roles are fixed, and each performs its part. None of them is useless.

Money is largely divided into two categories: Standard Currency and Fiat Currency. Standard Currency’s value is tied to real goods, while Fiat Currency relies on legal enforcement for its value exchange. Standard Currency is termed convertible gold if it can be exchanged for gold and convertible silver if it can be exchanged for silver. However, for any currency to be created and circulated in the market, bonds must exist first. When the government issues Fiat Currency and distributes it, the central bank lends money to commercial banks; this process is effectively a loan. A loan is legally recognized as a bond and represents a debt that must be repaid. Without debt existing in the world, money cannot circulate. The government manages the economy by adjusting the money supply in the market, either by collecting or lending more of these loans. Many people aspire to make money, but few truly understand what money is. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
