One lovely thing, its alays a trap, back in ye old times, you traded with animals, land, or your life, but I guess at some point, someone decided to hink"Hey, I can't carry around sheep all day, what if I had a metal that was light enough to carry around, but not worthless" probably happened somewhere in Greece, not entirely sure though

well shiny is cool and all but it would be better that such and important thing could have a usefulness for people.

Do you mean that we should use something for money that is actually useful to people, instead of having a bunch of little pieces of gold and silver lying around?

well i don't know my self, i just think that something that became valuable because of human stupidity will not support us for the coming future.

You may have a point, especially seeing as how there are only finite quantities of precious metals in the world.
