Monetary Myths by Aaron Singleton

"Money carries with it an expectation. We see it as the symbol of our productive effort, which can be traded for the things we desire. That’s why we accept it. We expect that others will do the same. In our minds, money becomes the physical embodiment of our sweat, our hard effort, our ideas, our achievements, and our labor. It is these things, and the material goods they produce, that do not grow on trees. The money we currently use does."
