Money is anything that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts. The main functions of money are as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a store of value. In the past, money was almost always commodity money, money with intrinsic value from the commodity of which it is made (eg. gold and silver coins, shells, tobacco leaves, grain). However, modern monetary systems are based on fiat money – money without intrinsic value, but declared by a government to be legal tender, that is, it must be accepted as a form of payment for 'all debts, public and private'. The term "price system" is sometimes used to refer to methods using commodity valuation or money accounting systems.

The money supply of a country is usually held to consist of currency (banknotes and coins) and 'deposit money' (the balance held in checking accounts and savings accounts). These demand deposits usually account for a much larger part of the money supply than currency. Deposit money is intangible and exists only in the form of various bank records. Despite being intangible, deposit money still performs the basic functions of money, as checks are generally accepted as a form of payment and as a means of transferring ownership of deposit money.

A. money is released through banks. some money is made to replace old, torn money. other money is made for new gold mined. your money is literally a representation of how much government gold you own, that's why rising gold prices are the first sign of inflation.

How much money should a 14 year old have in their bank account?
Q. I am a 14 year old boy who loves money, and wants to succeed. I mow lawns, do garage sales, and a bunch of other stuff. I have nearly 2,000 dollars in my account. This is money that I have earned. After my birthday(6 months) I plan to have around 3500 dollars in it. This doesn't include my other account with a bunch of savings bonds for college. Is this a lot, or not enough? Also if you have any tips about life in terms of money it would be greatly appreciated.

A. Excellent attitude. However, taking advantage of a free education will make you vastly wealthier than if you have a small amount of money now. Getting extremely high grades (and investing the time and disciple they take) will be worth much, much more than a few odd jobs right now. I would also highly recommend taking classes at a local community college, rather than immediately going to a much more expensive 4-year college or university. The credits are almost always transferable, especially if the community college is reputable. Community college courses can cost hundreds of dollars per credit hour less, and you get the same education out of them...sometimes you get an even better education, since community colleges often hire… [cont.]

How do banks help prevent money laundering in this situation?
Q. Let's say someone opens a huge account, let's say 5 mil$, does the bank ask him/her where he got the money from to make sure he didn't get it illegally? Do they tell the police to investigate where he/she got the money from?
