We take money for granted
The most primitive way to buy was to trade. This is exchanging one item for another but one item may have more value than the other so would be unfair. The other downside is that the other person may not want the item, no matter how much worth it has. The next idea was ‘money’ which would be anything from gold coins to seashells. This proved cumbersome to Greek and Roman traders so the idea of cheques sprouted. These could only be cashed by the person whose name was on them. This idea was opted by the government and began to print paper money.
This lead to paper notes being used till today along with other inventions such as credit and debit cards.
