Well in its purest form money isn't real and does not have value within itself, it is simply as way of exchanging value without actually moving the valuble items around ie trading food/gold/your time working.
Can you imagine you work 40 hrs then you boss comes home and paints your house, cleans your house, brings you around some bags of food he grew in his back field outside his house then hugs you to keep you warm in exchange lol.
I have watched that you tube vid a while ago and it is very interesting, but pretty much what we knew anyway. at the end of the day if the monetary system collasped for whatever reason then money in itself would have no value (accept maybe as good fire lighting stuff?).

Besides it is easier to keep a tenner in your pocket for 3 pints of lager down the pub than it is to keep a sheep in your back pocket as a barter for the 3 pints of lager.Iva started Dec 2018.0
