Identify the following as either a form of Money or a form of Credit. Put “M” for money and “C” for credit.
Aloiza [94]

Coins - money

Gift card - money

debit card - money

checks - money

currency - money

credit cards - credit

loans - credit

Anything is considered money (or can be used as cash) if the amount is readily available (the balance on a gift card has already been paid for or the money in the bank covers the amount of the check)

Anything is considered credit if you can take the item now and physically pay for it later (buy on credit card and take the merchandise but then pay the credit card off at a later time)

Why do people all over the world vote on and debate which structures are the greatest?
Oksana_A [137]
I think this could be a psychological phenomenon: people look for some symbols common to humanity, that would represent humanity as a whole.
The ancient Seven Wonders were a reminder of how far humanity has come and something that all the people who referred to them had a common: a wonder at how magnificent these structures were.
