Tim Delmastro's documentary, "End of the Road - How Money Became Worthless" takes you on a journey through the history of money, from the early days of bartering to the modern era of digital transactions. What struck me was how Delmastro highlights the way money has become detached from its original purpose. In the past, money was a representation of real value - goods and services that people needed. But today, money has become an end in itself, with its value determined by speculation and manipulation. It's like we're playing a giant game of Monopoly, where the rules keep changing and the goalposts keep moving.
My takeaway from "How Money Became Worthless" is that we need to rethink our relationship with money. We need to recognize that money is a tool, not an end in itself. We need to start valuing things that truly matter - like people, the environment, and community - rather than just chasing after more and more wealth.
If you're interested in economics, finance, or just want to understand the world we live in, I highly recommend checking out Tim Delmastro's film. It's a good reminder that we need to take control of our financial systems.
