Money
Money is universally-regarded as the “cruel-all” which can solve all problems on the face of the earth. In a sense this is true because it is the short-cut towards obtaining one’s basic necessities in life. Most convenient, too, money affords us the opportunity to lessen physical efforts.

It may be pointed out that, in ages gone by when money had not yet been thought of, we merely exchanged goods and services for another. It was known as the barter system. For example, if you desired someone to plow your farm, you might have offered him ten chickens for that job.
