something only has value if we all, or some with assets, a group, a select few, agree that value is there. then the rest jump on and hoard the value. like a board game, an elliptical chess with a worthless everything at it's foundation. the only lesson we can garnish is that our days are priceless, our lives infinitely limited and scarce, and out stupidity ever expanding at a rate higher than infinity. good times!
the value of currency is that it is generally valued as currency by a group. it is accepted in turn for good and services, and it is recognized as inherently having value. sort of like worthless pieces of paper representing some vague idea of a business, churning out paychecks, and products, and technology, evolution, progress and the rest. what a brilliant idea! it's certain that the lord, of the root of all evil, approves.
