People used to trade gold and silver for things.  Then, paper money was introduced to represent gold and silver.  Today, we are off the gold standard.  Paper money is only worth what the government says it is.

No one asked you, Bobby.

The Ocean (not Led Zeppelin's song).  Originally, salt (from where we get "salary") was money. 

A recently watched documentary stated that if you could pull all the gold out of the oceans, you could plate the entire Earth to the depth of about 2 feet.
