    When I ask my Dad for money he said "money doesnt come off trees." well i thought about it and i said to him "money DOES come off trees" and he said "your missing the point"

    well any way i did prove a point because money(paper) is made out of paper and paper comes from trees. I prove a point that money DOES come off trees.

    well technically it isn't money when it comes off the tree first, you have to do stuff to it.. like print on it, and the watermark and stuff

    so you're both wrong

    Modern money is more of a fabric than a paper.

    um i dunno what you lot use in america, but we changed from paper money to plastic decades ago. (probably to stop them being flamable and make them harder to counterfiet) so it doesn't really come off trees you see... unless they start making them out of one of those new biodegradable plastics. some of those are made from plant materials....:D

    American money is a paper/fabric hybrid with about 15 different markings to distinguish it from counterfeits. Very difficult to properly counterfeit, but people are pretty dumb and easily fooled, so crappy counterfeiting is still not uncommon, and disturbingly successful.

    American dollars are really bad. They are all the same size, same colour and look rather old-fashion. Compared to the British pound, which is different coloured for £5,£10,£20,£50 and slightly different sizes for each. Much more convenient and distinguishable.

    Canadian money is the best money, no doout aboot it. We have allllll different colors, and our one dollar coin is called a loonie, and our two dollar coin is called a twoonie. How much cooler does it get than that. Hey, if I can't be proud of the value of the goddamn dollar, I can at least appreciate its name and physical beauty. Buhahahaha. Also, our ten cent coin has a picture of the blue nose. Which was made in Nova Scotia. GO HOME TEAM!

    What about nations that use coins for currency, or things like clam shells?

    What about nations that use a barter system?

    What about people who start up moronic threads?
