Brief Introduction: How Money Functions

When we talk about money, we're talking about a medium of exchange in the form of coins and banknotes (AKA, currency).

Money is what we earn, what we use to pay our bills and what we use to buy things.

Money flows through our economy, and what matters is how much money there is to go around, who has the money (the distribution wealth), and how fast the money flows through our economy.
