Money
With
money we can buy the things that we need everyday. And there are many things
that money can buy. The problem is the amount of money that you have and how
wisely you use that amount.
Money
is first of all a means of exchange,
if you want to exchange some books that you do not need for a shirt, you may
try to find someone who needs your books and who has the shirt that you want.
But it is offer hard to organize an exchange. It is easier to sell the books
and then buy the shirt that you like.
Money
is also means of measuring the value
of other things. It is easier to say how
many rupiahs a cow costs than to say that it has the same value as five goats.
We
can also store value with money. It does not spoil as fish or fruit or
vegetables do when they are sold. The costs things, of course, may change as
time goes on and the money that you have today may be less in the future. If it
loses a let its value, money will be a bad means of storing value. Then it will
spoils farmer’s product can spoil.
Finally,
money is a means for making payments.
You may buy bicycle now and pay for it in five months, and make payment of
one-fifth on the cost every month. This is better than buying one fifth of a
bicycle at a time and not riding it until you have bought all parts. Many
shopkeepers are happy to do this for you if your credit is good. That is, if
you always make your payment on time.
