Moneyless world
Jun 26, 2002, 12:30
(stuck on the bottom of the thread as I've just read all the above posts)

Money solves an essential problem in my life: how do I convert what I can do into cans of Tennent's Super at my local off license? Money fulfils a very handy purpose as a barter conversion system. Also, a lot of the things I have or want aren't necessary like musical instruments and so on - I try to get money to have those things so I can do stuff, rather than wanting it so I can sit in a big pile of diamonds and gold coins throwing them up in the air and running them through my fingers.

The thought of living in a 'free Lada and sack of rice for everyone and each week you can have a bottle of champagne/box of chocolates/quartz watch (delete as not applicable) if you plead your case successfully to the central committee' society fills me with dread. Even when I lived on the two pences down the back of the sofa I had the freedom to spend them on 10 Embassy Filters rather than squander them on food.
