What is money to you?

[arnold dudicove]

For me money equals opportunity. Opportunity to experience anything by myself, and not by someone else. Opportunity to make my own review or test something. They are an instrument to add colors to my life. Without them my life wont be black and white, but they definitely make it brighter.

You are too cult of money. As if without money you are paralyzed and can't do anything. And that's an exaggeration, because we have plenty of other tools to test and find opportunities

Many people understand the use of money in different way, I have heared someone defined money as spendable asset, but for me in simple terms money is a current medium of exchange, then what is currency? It is funny to hear people say that currency is a hard currency, I think the correct understanding of currency is define in this manner A currency is a system of money in general use in some part of the country. What do you call money?

for me money is my tool to move, without money I can't meet my daily needs such as buying food, paying rent for a house/children's school and entertainment.

For me Money is also a source/medium. Use for exchanging your desired products. As far currency, It is a general term use to express different type of money issued by different sources.

That’s actually a cool question! Kind of philosophic and a bit of economic science 😊
First I agree with the thread starter – money is a medium of exchange. But furthermore it is something we trust on, something we believe in. We need to be kind of sure to get something worth the same as we gave for it. No matter what the worth of the material itself is – only like this we are able to swap between currencies, to pay by card and rely on virtual money. Seen like that money is also a medium of measuring worth.
Seen a little less scientific and more on a personal base: Money for me is only a thing to spend on new adventures. I am not a materialistic man, I would always prefer travels, a nice mountainclimb or some delicious food over an expansive watch, overrated piece of art or the newest car. So money is just here for spending on cool things to do and the gear I need for it 😉 I’m still young, I guess within a few years I also have to consider savings for feeding children and to have something to get back to when being in trouble… maybe crypto is the solution to this

[tomasmz]

it's very simple, money is freedom.

[Gormicsta]

In this world we are, money is actually a problem solver but I don't think it's everything to us, like there are some people who are very rich, ready to pay anything just to have life or peace of mind but couldn't because money is not everything, although it does help us in this world today but not everything.

[Bodhi2021]

Smiles, someone will not enjoy living is life without having even little amount of money, but still money is not everything, if you said money is everything then go and bring back a death person from his resting place or bring back the running time backward. So for me Money is just necessity in our life, Did you all agree with me ?

[EluguHcman]

Money is an inventory in either a centralized or decentralized system that is specifically for transaction exchange charges either by online or offline transaction exchanges.

[Bodhi2021]

Money to me is a basic necessity, that every human being need for there daily life, without it I don’t think someone can have a rest of mind, because you need money for shelter, foods, clothes, medical health. E.t.c

[JoyMarsha]

Money is a widely recognized medium of exchange as we all know. It makes the exchange of goods and services easier. We can simply carry out our regular tasks when we have money. Although having money makes life easier, our lives do not necessarily depend on it. Many people lose their lives in the pursuit of money, which is very bad because you come to the world empty-handed and are going to leave it with nothing.

Money is whatever you choose it to be. So we ought to pursue it legitimately and watch it come to us when we work intelligently and hustle for it from different angles.

It is true that money is to different people different things. However there is a universal view and understanding of money and that is what the majority people know about money. Money has many uses and having money is one of those things that brings about confidence and peace of mind. The most characteristics of money that is known by many is just the purchasing power of money. Apart from the purchasing power of money many people do not know other uses of money. But there are some financial experts who know more about money about from it for the same power and I think it is only way you know more about money about from it purchasing power that you begin to enjoy money. I have heard that people keep working for money or the day of their life why money work for some other people. So, there is more to money than what we understand.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

       -   Like Op said, I agree that money is a kind of medium of exchange, and there is some truth to it. This is what we use to have or get what we want in life, and if we want to have money, we use the things we buy and sell them when we need money.

But we have what we call three types of money: commodity money, which contains gold and silver and has intrinsic value; fiat money, which is the fiat currency held by the government; and cryptocurrency, like Bitcoin, which works through a decentralized network, which is why it cannot be controlled by any government.

[MUGNIA]

I agree with your thoughts about money, but I have a little additional opinion regarding the meaning of money from my point of view. Money is the ruler, where if we don't have money then our life will be useless. On the other hand, if we have money, everything can be bought and controlled.
Money is the controller of the activities of creatures on this earth

[Gormicsta]

In my own opinion, money is the necessity in our everyday life,  we need money for exchange of goods and services, money is very important to me because we can't survive in this country without money involved.

[Mr. Allcrypto]

For me I will say that money is  what brings happiness, haha 😄... it got your attention right? Yh when I mean it bring happiness many people will like to argue about that, but is technical, with money one can have access to anything he or she wants depending on the amount of money he/she may have precisely.
Money is a necessity in our day to day life, because without money, one can not survive in our generation. With money you get to do all your needs and wants.
But when it comes to currency, it is simply a money in the form of paper or coins that is issued by the government and generally accepted by the citizens of that particular country at face value...
Currency are also used for International recognition. Because for example, we use Naira as a currency in Nigeria, so in the exchange market, when you talk about Naira one can easily recognize you as a Nigerian, there are varieties of currency in the world today and each currency has their own values attached to them in the Exchange market today...
