Tell someone that you are going to a convention of accountants and you might get a few yawns, yet money and how it works is probably one of the most interesting things on earth. It is fascinating and almost magical, how money appeared on our planet. Unlike most developments we enjoy, which can be traced back to a source, civilisation or inventor, money appeared in places then unconnected all over the world in a remarkably similar way.Consider the American Indians using Wampum, West Africans trading in decorative metallic objects called Manillas, and the Fijians economy based on whale's teeth, some of which are still legal tender; add to that shells, amber, ivory, decorative feathers, cattle including oxen & pigs, a large number of stones including jade and quartz, which have all been used for trade across the world, and we get a taste of the variety of accepted currency.There is something charming and childlike imagining primitive societies, our ancestors, using all these colourful forms of money. As long as everyone concerned canagree on a value, this is a sensible thing for a community to do.After all, the person who has what you need might not need what you have to trade. Money solves that problem neatly. Real value with each exchange, and everyone gaining from the convenience. The idea is really inspired, which might explain why so many diverse minds came up with it. Once the money is accepted as a form of exchange, those who produce, loan out, and manipulate the quantity of money are obviously in a very strong position They are the "Money Changers"."History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and its issuance," said President James Madison.Money, money, money, it's always just been there, right? Wrong. Obviously, it's issued by the government to make it easy for us to exchange things. Wrong again!Truth is, most people don't realise that the issuing of money is essentially a private business and that the privilege of issuing money has been a major bone of contention throughout history.What is fascinating and almost magical? *

Wanda was a Polish girl in an all American school. She had an unfamiliar name and different looks because of which she was constantly teased by her classmates.

Peggy, Maddie and the other girls used to make fun of her dresses. Wanda used to tell them that she had a hundred dresses and sixty pairs of shoes even though she wore the same faded blue cotton dress everyday. Fed up with her teasing, she left the school and moved to a big city with her family.

Before leaving she had taken part in an art competition in the school. She had submitted about a hundred drawings of designs of dresses. They were so beautiful that every student of her class was amazed. Later, she gifted all her drawings to her classmates inspite of their teasings.
