Fascinating story of money

A friend sent me this link to a 47-minute animated film explaining the fundamentals & history of money, about how banks create & lend money they don't have. It's easy to watch, and hard to stop watching! Everything starts to make a lot more sense after seeing this ;) If you've got some time to enjoy a light-hearted but eye-opening story, give it a look.

PS. I'm sure there's a better home for this post - the Moneysavers Arms - but I can't see how to delete or move this. Oops.
