Trust is the Currency of Society
Money is fundamentally a social construct rooted in trust between individuals, challenging the perception of money as inherently evil or solely a capitalist tool.

Recognizing money as a fictional idea underlines the need for mutual agreement on its value and role in society, suggesting that our acceptance of money is part of an unconscious social contract.
