Money for Beginners: An Illustrated Guide

Money is mysterious. You can hardly touch it, and yet it rules the world. We love it, we hate it, but few people can tell you what the heck it really is. Wouldn't it be good to get out of the fog? This book can bring you clarity. It can help you see money for what it is, understand the way it works, and how to leverage its power. The authors take you on an illuminating journey from your piggy bank to the Federal Reserve, without any pesky jargon or complex math. Once you see money clearly, life will never be the same. You'll know what really goes on in banks, and what the cash in your wallet represents. You'll know how government really spends, and why it can't run out of money. You'll know what money can actually do-- and how we can make it work for us.
