Money
In 1862, paper money became legal tender in the US. But whether it’s cowrie shells, metal discs, gold bars, paper, electronic bytes or cryptocurrencies, what matters more than the form that money takes is our relationship to it. Are we greedy or generous with money? Do we use it to manipulate or to help others? Is money fairly distributed or hoarded by a few? Do we squander it or spend wisely? Is money our master or our servant? As a medium of exchange, money is one of humanity’s greatest inventions. But it is always a means, never an end.
