Im pretty sure money was NOT invented 55 years ago. Ancient Rome had coins and they were not all golden. Every civilisation did cause trading things is not practical. Otherwise yes, we exist on "Trust me" backed up system.

🚨THE BIGGEST LIE IN MONEY HISTORY

Paper money was never meant to be money.
It was a receipt.
You deposited gold at a bank.
The bank handed you a note that said:
“This can be redeemed for X amount of gold.”
That was it.
The paper had no value.
The gold did.
The paper just made trade easier.
This system worked for centuries.
The British pound.
The French franc.
The U.S. dollar.
All backed by something real.
Then governments noticed something dangerous.
If people trust the paper,
they don’t come asking for the gold.
So they printed a little more than they had.
Then a little more.
Then a lot more.

And when too many people started asking questions,
they didn’t fix the problem.
They closed the gold window.
It was supposed to be temporary.
That was 55 years ago.
Today, the dollar is backed by nothing but trust.
And that trust has quietly stolen 97% of your purchasing power.
The receipt became the money.
Promises replaced assets.
And “value” became something nobody is required to honor.
Modern money isn’t broken by accident.
It works exactly as designed.
