RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the history of money? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RESPONSE TO RESEARCH QUESTION: The first form of money was trading. Years later the Turquish were the first to invent coin money. They invented coins because at the time it was a lot to carry arownd and there was so many things that they would trade. They invented coins because it was much easer to cary around and the civilians liked the designs on the coins. The Chinese were the first to invent paper money. They had coins but the coins weighed a lot so the civilians didn't like the coins.So the gouvernment invented paper money which is much lighter then the coins. In 1879 the europeans had the idea of the credit card but didn't invent it. About 70 years later the United States of Amarica invented the very first credit card in 1925 but this credit card only worked from the store you bout it from. 25 years later 1950 they invented a credit that works for every store that has a credit check. Money cause of war.Reason being cause soldiers will do anything for money. To you money provides the rewards for sucess in war. Money leads many people into crime. Money can perswade people to do many things that is one of the down sides to money as is war. Some of the things that money can do is: murder, robbery and bribery.

Hi Guys,
It was nice working with you today and finding out info on the credit cards. I hope you use the idea we discussed in your presentation (explaining how credit card information is sent through computers, etc.) It doesn't have to be too in-depth, but just enough to explain the idea.
