Introduksyon Money is the thing that puts food on the table and a coat on your back (as in Iceland). For Filipinos, money means what brings food to the table. For Bill Gates, former wealthiest man in the world, money can mean his cash, assets or wealth.
Money can be defined as anything that people regularly use to buy goods and services from other people. It can be anything accepted as a means of paying for goods or services or for paying debts. Money has one fundamental purpose in an economic system: to facilitate the exchange of goods and services, to lessen the time and effort required to carry on trade. A person living and working in complete isolation has no use for money. It cannot be eaten or worn or used to promote productive processes. Having no occasion to exchange either goods or services with others, such a person has no need for money. Even if a dozen people lived together in isolation from all others, the use of money would be limited benefit to them; they could barter their goods and services among themselves with little loss of time and effort. As groups become larger, however, and wish to increase their degree of specialization and the size of their trade area, they find the direct barter of goods and services increasingly inconvenient and increasingly wasteful of time and effort. They therefore search for something that will enable them to escape the wasteful processes of barter, so they invent money. The researcher decided to study the history of Philippine money. To further increase the knowledge about money in the Philippines.
