What is Money?…and Why Does it Matter? (Video)

by Positive Money

Felix Martin, author of the bestselling book Money: the Unauthorised Biography gave a great lecture on the nature of money and the mythologies that we build around it in St Paul’s Cathedral on 5th February 2014:

Organized by St Paul’s Institute

Showing how commonly conceived ideas about money and its history are not only wrong, but dangerous, this session will explore the secret history of money and explain the truth about what money is, where it comes from, and how it works.

Using stories from throughout human history and around the globe, this talk will radically rearrange your understanding of the world and show how money can once again become the most powerful force for freedom we have ever known.

Please do share this to those you think might be interested in hearing more on this important topic.
