Hello and welcome to my blog, where I share fascinating and inspiring stories about money from different countries and cultures. Money is more than just a medium of exchange or a store of value. Money is also a reflection of history, identity, values, and beliefs. Money can tell us a lot about ourselves and the world we live in.
In this blog, I will explore how money shapes and is shaped by various aspects of human life, such as politics, religion, art, education, health, and happiness. I will also share tips and insights on how to manage your money wisely and creatively, no matter where you are or what your situation is.
Some of the stories that you can expect to read on this blog are:
How a $20 banknote sparked a viral challenge in Zimbabwe, where young entrepreneurs started their own businesses with only $20 and shared their progress online.
How a British woman saved money by living like a Victorian, using antique appliances, wearing vintage clothes, and avoiding modern conveniences.
How a small town in Finland made people happier by giving them free money, as part of an experiment to test the effects of unconditional cash transfers on well-being, employment, and social security.
These are just some examples of the money stories around the world that I will share with you on this blog. I hope you will find them interesting, informative, and inspiring. I also hope you will join me in this journey of discovering the amazing and diverse world of money.
