Segment 1: Why is Money Made of Paper?

Segment begins at 00:45

Recently, Jerry’s 6-year old son asked him this question. As the teacher in him seized the moment, he realized that there are many other people who may not fully understand why money is paper and more importantly, how money has actually become debt. Sit back and enjoy this eye-opening, inspired lecture on what money is – and is not.

• China was the first country in history to adopt paper money
• The Nixon shock of 1971 came when he took the U.S. dollar off of the gold standard
• It’s easier to carry around paper than it is to carry coins, especially if you have a lot of them
• Every U.S. dollar is actually a ‘Federal Reserve Note’ or a loan by the Fed which must be paid back with interest
• Paper currency is issued by ‘fiat‘ or government decree
• So why is paper money usable if it has no intrinsic value?
• Our debt-based monetary system will ultimately fail because it’s unsustainable
• The fact that we have ‘fake’ money shouldn’t surprise us in this ‘fake’ world
• Three important economic red flags
• Let us teach you how to buck the trend and think outside the box before America’s inevitable day of reckoning
