Money is something that we hear and talk about a lot, and so it is important to understand how it works so we can make it work for us, rather than against us.
In the old days people lived in small family groups and were self-sufficient. What they produced (by hunting and gathering) they consumed themselves
When people began to live in small settlements, they began to specialise (produce only products they were good at making) and traded for what they did not produce.
Because of problems with barter, people began to introduce the first forms of money as a medium of exchange. Common items used were shells, beads, precious metals and even salt.
But to barter effectively you need to have a DOUBLE COINCIDENCE OF WANTS. Eg: a person who wants to trade something must find a person to trade with who has what they want and wants what they have. This is time very time consuming!
The form of money that began to dominate ancient societies were precious metals, such as gold and silver. These had real value, were long lasting and could be broken down into smaller amounts.
Early forms of money A 640 BC one-third stater coin from Lydia.
Metals were scarce, but large amounts were heavy. Instead of carrying around this type of money, people began to deposit their coins with goldsmiths (which turned into banks) and used IOUs (paper notes) which could be swapped for coins at other goldsmiths.
The first paper money was issued by the Chinese Ming Government in 1374. The notes were called “Great Ming Precious Notes”.
