Money – it jingles in your pocket, it rustles in your wallet and it clinks in your piggy-bank. Money makes the world go round, but what’s it? It’s a store of value or a measure of wealth. Money is anything that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services. This is a wide definition and, over the centuries, money has appeared in all shapes and sizes; cowrie shells in ancient China, huge stone discs on a South Pacific Island or beads (Wampum) for the North American Indians.
