Everything about money. Including collecting, and stock quotes! Money started as a simple way for traders to trade with each other. Originally, people didn't even need money, as things were simply swapped. As the trade became standardized, certain number of items can be traded with certain number of other items. Value became important, as an item that was scarce or hard to get became more valued than items that were simple to obtain. This "value" became the basis of money. For example, a cow may be worth about 40 chickens. If you used this example, the value of the cow was worth more than a chicken, thus you needed more chickens to equal the value of a single cow. You can then take an arbitrary coin or bill and make a certain number of these coins and bills to be equal a chicken. Thus, instead of trading cows and chickens, people traded money. The money in the end was used to swap with the actual items. This made it easier to trade, as you no longer needed to carry around a cow or many chickens to exchange stuff.
