I was clicking around youtube and a video got me thinking, what happens if we as a country really do decide to get rid of the paper dollar? Remember those $1 coins that came into circulation a few years back? Those coins were intended to see if people would use them more than the $1 bill so we can save a little bit of cash on printing charges (coins last WAYYYYYYY longer than their paper counterparts).
Anywhooo that really got me thinking, if we only had coins we would be like pirates! We’d all have to carry money around in leather sacks and I assume we’d have to carry a lot of money around in a treasure chest! Here is an example of what would happen if we only started using coins:
And what did this video teach us? #1, that there are some places that will not be ready for when pirate time comes, and #2 you can by a whole darn lot of crayons for $1.00!!!!
Have a good/great Thursday!
