Concrete Poem Essay, Research Paper
Money is
something
that not all people are blessed with. For many it is a rare commodity. For years people
have always sought to get money. It has been their driving force in life, it is why they do
the things they do. Some people see money as being the ticket getting power. Others see
money as the ticket to
getting respect. Still others
see money as the ticket to staying alive. A long time ago there was no money. People
bartered, or traded. There was no buying and selling, just bartering. The world was
simpler back in those days. Nowadays money is taking new forms. People trade
stocks daily over the Internet.
They pay for things with plastic cards.
Are these types of money??? What
is a dollar bill anyways??? A piece of paper with a dead president?s face on it. Why does
this slip of paper have value??? Gold and silver are the precious metals that all money is
based on. But why do these elements of nature control our lives the way they do??? Why
is money so important in our lives??? Money plays an important role in everyone?s lives.
Without it we face a life of humility and poverty. Although money may not be dear to us,
it?s importance in our lives is unmatched by any other, shall we say…………………………..
