Do you know the name of person who discovered money? The concept of money. What would you like to called him, engineer, scientist, mathematician, philosopher....
He/she had done really hard and really good thing in the Earth. Now a days money become one of the most valuable things in the world. With out money we can't do anything...
When money had not discovered, people exchange things, and their wealth being caltulated, from their things. Now wealth counts money. Dollar.
First money from silver and gold may be...
I have heard paper money was first discover from China..
Money, it's nothing just a piece of paper, but it has value.. just like a diamond.. it's nothing people just give value to it, then it becomes valuable and expensive.
The world is running after money. People aims is to become rich, to earn more money... this money can kill someone life, just for money...
Money making trouble ?
I don't know, if life there in other planet, whether they use money there or not...i think it;s great discover by man.
I don't think money discover by God. People had discover money.
I know there is no money in the heavens. in all religion. There might be golds..etc.. but there's not money..i have not heard that story...
Now , i feel, money is ruling the world?
Please comments on MONEY to earn more MONEY in mylot.

No one discovered money.With the development of exchange,money appeared.At the begin of society money was beautful stone or wampum somewhere.Paper money based on the authority of government and without trust paper money is a piece of paper without any value.The world is running not only money but also trust.Nowaday money is only a part of life but it doesn't rule world.
Did you even see the heavens?
And how do you know there is no money in ?

I've read from a history book that Croesus invented money. Now, I think it's good that he invented it because I can't imagine myself going to theater with a sack of rice...lolz
On the other hand, I strongly believe that money doesn't rule the world. In fact, there are many rich people who are not happy with their lives.
Money cannot buy happiness and love.

Hello vine,
Money is very essential in our life. I just don't know who discovered it or what happened why we use money now. As far as I know, the history would tell us that before there was no money, people would just exchange goods or services or what we call "barter"
If money was not from God, then why does the bible talks about money very often. Because even God knows how much we need money. God even wants us to be rich that's why He keeps on blessing the people who believes that idea and who would keep on acknowledging His blessings. Money is not bad, the people who handle it is bad. A religious person can have lots of money as long as he is using it for the good of himself and other people and for the glory of God.
Take care and have fun posting -- red_amethyst

Jesus wants us to earn not just little but more than enough.
The thing is we need to give Him back what is due to him by giving tithes.
And we shouldn't be using it for the wrong thing.
If we have lots of money, we can help more people that means we become a blessing to more people.
take care

thank you red,
As far as i know, from my thinking,
MONEY born ahead, and then Jesus born.
JESUS talk about tax. talk about business, buyers and sellers..
I think, Jesus might be worried from this money, because this thing is making people corrupt, cunning,...and lots...
he said, don't earn much money..Just earn little..help people..
I really appreciate his thinking.

MOney is the root of all evil!! haha =D Though god might not have money, but in hell, there's definitely money to be shared among them!! lol =D
MOney is something we cant afford to not have, and yet we wont want too much as it means trouble for us.. BUt the luxury of what money can bring to us, often makes us lose our heads, once we started missing out on what we used to have, and wants it back.. haha 
MOney is just another form of tempation, which all of us always fail to resist.. hehe

Your composition on 'Money' is very beautiful! Money is the prime motivating factor behind everything in humanlife! I may say or claim, "Money is truth and rest everything is apperent-truth!" Like other items, money is also invented by humans in its continuous journey from bartering to e-money of this Internet age! Money, it is the most funny item in human life that makes life worth living on this planet earth! It is the physical form of Goddess of wealth and very dynamic in nature!
Money grows only if it is systematized through a proper marketing system that is focused at the benefit of the mass! Also, growth in the primary sector (agriclture and Nature based) and secondary sector (manufacturing and service) of a nation is the real way to the financial growth of a country that brings more foreign exchanges for the country! Money is also said to be the most volatile item in a person's pocket that needs to be well cared always!
Anyway, money has now crossed International barriers, in this time of globalization and e-commerce!
Thanks for your nice composition and have a nice amount of real 'Money'!!

If I am being completely honest, I think that the world might well be a better place if we were able to go back in time before the time that there was money. I think that the people in the world worked together in a better way than they do now that there is the case that money talks. If I was asked to be completely honest about all of the money issues, I really think that communism would be one of the better ways to go about it if it was worked out in the right way.

Well I don't think the concept of money was a discovery but it was product of adaptation. I would like to know more indeed as well. For the longest time I knew that people would trade labor and commodities to gain what they needed in exchange. The fact is that corruption may have eventually required us to develop some check in balance to help economy evolve and help us control a measurement for the sake of even trade, and prevent theft and abuse.

Whoever came up with the concept of money should be shot. If anything it created more greed. Everyone feels they never have enough, and always want more. So food prices, gas, rent and other goods and services keep on the rise, but those who want those things never have enough money.

I don't know if money was or not discovered by God, but gods wearing purses are common in the Greek and Roman world, where people were often buried with a money in the mouth or in the hand to pay Charon to go across the Styx. They were logical : if God has a little interest for humans, he can't take no notice of money.

From what I understand the concept of money was invented as a standard in the bartering days.
In a world of bartering the value of an object changed from person to person, depending on how badly they wanted said object.
Money was invented as a core value or basis on which to compare values of objects being traded, to help ensure a fair trade for all parties involved.

Yes, money rules the world, and I don't have much of it.
But I really really want it. :P
