Why does money exist?

Why did people create money?

Why do people use money?

Do anons recommend any resources to learn about it?

> scarcity management system
But what is it that is being managed? Scarcity? If so. Is money itself scarce? And in that case, is money managing itself?

> It is a need
But why? What makes it a necessity?

> It is easier to keep up with one thing that can be used to get everything else you need, then keeping up with everything else
But money is not one thing, is it? How many variants don't we have?

And even if it were, the process of making, acquiring and storing money is also not just one, but many.

It exists so that a government of kikes can exist to tax you so that their soldiers can be funded to hunt you down and kill you for not paying taxes.

The scarcity of everything, energy, food, material, time etc.
>But why? What makes it a necessity?
Because humans are evolving to be eusocial, key is evolving, we aren't there, and we need money as crutch to support this complex social system no one is smart enough to fully understand that we rely on for survival
>But money is not one thing, is it? How many variants don't we have?
It is symbol of value, the value comes not wanting to die, something that liberals don't want, that's why they build communism
>What?
It is study of how people behave with their money, learning about that is learning about money
I think if we had money that's value was based on a joules because it would link your civilization's capacity for energy production to economic prosperity

But money exists outside of government of kikes, doesn't it?

Also, if soldiers accept money. What is that money which they are accepting?

This makes sense anon, but isn't it the same as saying: "we need this thing we don't known what it is to support this other thing we don't know what it is"?

> It is symbol of value, the value comes not wanting to die, something that liberals don't want, that's why they build communism

So money is a symbol for not wanting to die?

> It is study of how people behave with their money, learning about that is learning about money

Do you have some scholar to recommend about this area?

> I think if we had money that's value was based on a joules because it would link your civilization's capacity for energy production to economic prosperity

And would make it easier to understand too.

Your point about it originally being about valuable elements like silver and gold reminds me of anon's >>245796 point about scarcity. This is why those elements where chosen as money, right? And the reason for the choice was in order to manage the scarcity of things needed for survival.

I made an hypothesis on >>245804 for money being a symbol for not wanting to die. This makes sense if we think that any organism is first and foremost concerned with survival. It also reflects what >>245796 said on how we are still not fully adapted to being social, thence the need for money.

But doesn't this make money this thing we don't known what it is to support this other thing we don't know what it is? After all, we don't known what will fulfill our survival, do we?

Isn't "value" just another word for "money"? Or do you mean "value" in the more broad definition of "that which people want"?

In the second case, the points system analogy makes sense. We don't know what people want universally, do we? Actually, is there anything that people want universally to begin with? Wouldn't that be survival, as pointed out by >>245796 ?

We exchange because we are social. And we are social in order to survive. So it's universal because it measures the universal demand for survival... This makes sense.

But as I mentioned on >>245809, we still don't know what allows our survival, do we?

Pain is a proxy for risk of survival, is it not? This goes back to the same point.
>>245810

Yeah, anon >>245796 mentioned we do not fully understand the "system", thence, why he described it as a "crutch". But doesn't this still leaves money as an unknown?
