There are two primary approaches to creating something: bottom-up design and top-down design . Top-down design is often seen in architecture. People do not build bricks randomly; instead, they follow the design drawings created by the architect. This method executes a plan that has already been established. When asked why something is built in a certain way, the answer is usually that the blueprint dictates its design. Conversely, bottom-up design does not start with a fixed goal, but rather involves setting and implementing small, actionable rules. For example, termite nests follow this approach. Small termites have a simple rule: to pile up soil. They do this without knowing the reason, but over time, the finished structure is remarkable and sophisticated. The appearance of the Sagrada Familia church , designed by Antoni Gaudà and still under construction, closely resembles a termite nest, differing only in size.

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”
