West African Wisdom About Money For The Modern Age

Key Takeaways:

1. Ancient Wisdom: Old stories, like the tale of Anansi the spider, still teach us about power, trust, and how those ideas show up in today’s money systems.
2. Gold and Natural Law: Gold has long been trusted as money because it’s rare and takes a lot of work (energy) to dig out of the ground.
3. Power of Central Banks: When central banks like the Bank of England and the U.S. Federal Reserve were created, they gained control over money. But this also led to more inflation and higher taxes.
4. Bitcoin as the Modern Story: Bitcoin is like a new version of the Anansi story—it breaks the old system and offers a new kind of money that is limited and not controlled by any one group.
5. Building a Better Financial Future: Many people believe the future of money will rely on things that can’t be easily changed—like gold and Bitcoin—to give more people control and spread wealth more fairly.
