Money is not real

That quote is from a movie by Richard Pryor who made the statement when he got exposed/ got the curtains pulled on him to show that he was the one pulling the strings, not a wizard or a big powerful giant but a politician and he also called himself a fraud.

With that reference I want to share something I have been yearning to share with you since I began this newsletter, something I have been deeply thought about and concluded that it’s true about money.

I’ve have been holding this out for a year now, and time to reveal that money is not real I want to pull the curtain on it as you might say. First of all what is money. Let’s start with the elementals of money;

What is money?

“Money often has no intrinsic value. Instead, money is an object with a value placed on it, allowing for the trade of goods and services.”- Creditkarma.com

It may seem strange but honestly the money we use, the Pula, Dollar, Rands etc, this money is not real, it does not have value of itself.

Money is just a faith. Why do I say this? Why and how is it just a baseless faith?

I will begin to prove that money is just an illusion that we all believe in, and that it has no value of itself but yet it runs the whole world, next week.
