Money and then there is money.

Might be old school but I look at pay pal as a different kind of money! I consider the pay pal arrangement very differently from a normal real world money transaction. For that reason, I don't want to connect my pay pal account to my bank account. How about you? How do you view "money"? ******edited********

Giving it to someone who really needs it makes us really feel good. I just wish that those people will use it in the right way.

I like what the person is doing and shows people what she is doing with it and why. Not that much money really but I think she appreciates it. I don't give much. My financial status put a clamp on that activity so this online stuff is something different for me.

@Timex123 Not sure what or who you are referring to? You are opposed to people taking and publishing videos or a certain kind of video? I don't understand.

@mynameiskate The only thing that I don't want is for those people who are taking videos while giving that money. Video's for what?

I see Money as money. I don’t try to break it down. If your asking who I use what I earn online I use it for several things. Mostly I use it to sit and add up in my PayPal. I some times have to use it to feed my kids, pay a small bill. Use it as emergency funds. Right now it’s for vacation money Incase we need it.

I was just asking how you think of money which can be a whole lot of things. Kind of a general question really. But as your own personal money I can understand what you mean. I tend to compartmentize and when I learn how to spell that word I'll be much better off. When it comes to old school paper currency or even coins like yourself my piggy bank might have a goal in mind. Cute!

@mynameiskate my kids are the only ones with piggy bank. I have change bin for when we need to travel. Toll booths are much easier go through with lose change. Money has many meanings for someone. For the rich it means power, for those that are poor it means a will to some freedoms.

@mynameiskate toll booth are only for major high ways other high way are for free but could take longer to get to where you are. Toll booths are what helps pay for the roads in each state to be able to get fixed when they get pot holes and stuff. To get through them there are lanes just like on the road and then a booth is set up either with a person inside or one that is set up for you to put the money on, some take tickets and when you get to your exist you pay then or they have it where you can put a sticker in your care window and it has money on it already and they deduct the money from it. You don’t hit the booths or drive over them. It’s not a speed bump this is just one of those things that we have in America. We also drive on the right side of the road not the left and the driver seat is on the left side of the cars and not the right side of the car. We have speed limits in miles per hour not kilos

I see money as money. It is fun to save money in regular saving account. At the end it is fun to see the interest. The most expensive thing I bought was a bungalow. I had a mortgage which lasted for 7 years. I love to travel to different countries and there I have to exchange my British currency to those of the country I am visiting. On my travels I have collected a three dollar note and a triangular coin from the Cook Islands.

@mynameiskate I felt very the moon with happiness when I had paid off my mortgage. I really love my three dollar note and triangular coin.

Three dollar note that is truly amazing. Money is money that is true but somehow paper money and tap it just seems different somehow. With a mortgage or loan keeping enough in the account just for that is without doubt is paramount. Bet you felt good when it was all paid off.

I love money! The more the merrier. I use half my PayPal money to go into a special savings account, and the other half is tripled by my husband to go to our favorite charity every month.

@mynameiskate I agree. Trust me - we are spenders! However, it is important to have a savings.

I think it is good idea to enjoy it. Some have said it was made to be passed around but savings are a good idea too so that when we do use it there is more of it.

Well true. But it isn't something you can touch until you pass it over the internet and the man comes to your door with the paper box marked from Ameeizon

That won't work here.

@JohnKu I suppose if we tried paying with money like in the picture above that wouldn't work either. My problem are my bills go way beyond my pal's account on account I don't make that much.

I think it's great of you to give your money away. For me, I need the money, so I keep it.

It sounds like a good idea. I find there is always something doing it the other way around on me.

Money give identification of us. At the same time it give bad behaviors too. So need to handle correctly.

I never heard that kind of expression before. It is our identification. I like that. Certainly with new money that is plastic money tracing is more easily achieved than paper currency. I would be interested in hearing more about what you mean by being identified by money? Interesting term.
