I think people are being a bit harsh but you shouldn't be rude when you are not expressing/comprehending your own and other peoples' thoughts correctly.

So money per se has no value, it is an intermediary good that grants the holder and the receiver some rights in form of purchasing power. So you were right and your friends are idiots (in that matter). | ||

Or a chicken. Or whatever else you want to buy. It's just staggered bartering. In a barter system you need to have something they want to buy something off them. In a money system as long as everyone wants something then it all works out the same. There's no need for gold in the system. This is ridiculous. How did that money get its worth in the first place may i ask? | ||

In a money system as long as everyone wants something then it all works out the same. There's no need for gold in the system. Barter/trade system is the best form of value (or whatever it's called). You can even trade labor for things. But the problem is that you can't split some things in pieces, when you have to weigh out the value of all these things to trade it get's messy. Being able to put your own value on the things you own is the ultimate way to control your finance. Money acts as a placeholder. When you have savings in a bank and the dollar goes down, you lose money even though it's the same work the whole time. Reminds me of how when I played the WoW auction house market, I'd buy everything low and put it up mid/high and then profit, rinse repeat. Then when I have the bankroll, move on to the next expensive high priorty item (started out with cloths, then engineer stuff, first aid books, then energies and shards for enchants). I could even effect my own trade business by taking losses in the auction house and selling enchants for higher prices with my own materials. An example would be buying all the shards for a high level enchant and reposting them for a few gold more, and monitoring any other additions and buying and reposting them. Then spamming in trade chat that I do enchants for a markup price equal or greater than the price in the AH for the mats. And if I wasn't around/online/or the person didn't wanna deal with me, they had little/no choice anyways because I had all the mats in the AH. I made a shit load of gold this way, probably more effective than chinese farmers. There was also an IRL story about some dude who started with a red paperclip and traded/upgraded it over and over until he got a house in canada or something. | ||

This is ridiculous. How did that money get its worth in the first place may i ask? People said like "I give you 2 loaves of bread for 1 chicken or this deed that enables you to get 2 loaves of bread, 1 barrel of beer etc."? Or how did gold get its value? Questions! (hint: the same way) | ||
