The only thing that makes money different from any other resource like; Gold, Silver, Water, Sun, etc. etc. is that you can go on printing it until the Cows come home.  The only thing that makes it finite, is the paper you print it on.........but then when that runs out, you can always print it on something else.  What a odd system we've created, you can buy a house with totally worthless pieces of paper; as long as the figures on the notes add up to the cost of the house. The so called clever ones, buy pieces of paper that say they own Gold or Silver.........buckets of it.  It seems they are totally without concern, that if all the existing gold and silver certificates, in the World, were cashed in tomorrow; there wouldn't be near enough gold and silver in existence to cover them. Money moguls, play around with £ billions on the stock market every day; moving your unseen pension pot ,into their ever deeper pockets.........But one thing remains as sure as life itself..........what goes into one mans pocket, comes out of another mans pocket.
