prashansas 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2012 Wow ! That would be such a great idea if each one of us owned a printing machine of our own where we could just print money whenever we wished to and spent it as we wanted to . But unfortunately that was not the way it is planned. Though if we could, no one on this earth would be poor and everyone would live a luxurious life. But then nobody would realize the importance of money. Nobody would learn to value it, because human tendency is such that we value only those things that we know we have to work hard for, not for things that we get very easily and don't have to slog . And besides people would also try and misuse money for any wrong purposes and too many crimes would take place. So working hard and earning money to become rich according to me is a good idea then printing money and becoming rich where we wouldn't understand the importance and become lazy in earning money and striving hard for it.

Well, money also doesn't have any true value, only a perceived one. This is why we have things like inflation. So even if we could make our own money, it would just lead to everything being extremely expensive, and the end result would be that things would be like they already are now (just instead of being paid $10 and spending $5, we'd make $500 and spend $250.

Ananya 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2012 Definitely money governs every aspect in our life.Depending on the amount of money we have in our purses we can either think of pursuing a dream or not.But the money with which we can accomplish so much in our life doesn't come easily to us.We have to work really hard enough to earn it but finding shortcuts to earn it like finding a printing machine and print as much money we need sounds too exciting.But there arises a question what impact can such actions lead to when the whole of economy is concerned.If randomly many people in society finds a way to earn money like this a huge chaos can happen economically.Because getting access to money means getting access to resources.So money has to be injected in a system depending on the availability of resourceswe can provide to the people.If everybody prints money and come out with lots of money but adequate resources isn't there to fulfill their demand.The whole balance of demand supply chain will be broken.There will be only demands but supplies won't be there.Accordingly commodity prices will reach far above bringing in an unhealthy degree of inflation. Such inflationary nature of money can be well evident from situations when government injects money in economy through various ways like giving salary increment hike by setting up pay commissions.

ritu 1 Report post Posted May 24, 2012 Printing money... that is an idea that should be left for trusted authorities, there is another aspect that might be discussed about, if everyone starts to print money then nobody would be interested to do any other work, so even if you get rich yourself , what would you buy as there would be shortage of services and products, lack of interest in all other fields than printing money. The increase in the amount of resources unnaturally would ultimately result in the slow decline of the end itself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quatrux 4 Report post Posted May 25, 2012 In the age of "electronic" money, it might be easier to fake it with other means (various card operations, bank transactions), than to create/use a manufacturing process for paper money.It is illegal and in long term it is better to enhance your knowledge in high value things and open up a business than to steal and get few small injections of money.

ritu 1 Report post Posted June 4, 2012 Undoubtedly, it is better to invest ideas to develop new methods of creating goods and services at such rates that people with average incomes(by average I mean not out of the high income group),can also take a shot at buying them, .........money actually here remains no more than resources to achieve that end and when the most of the commodities can be bought at a reasonable cost, then more people can be termed as rich.

mamer 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 If I have the skills and resources to print something with high quality like money I would simply print something that I could sell and make money. I knew of some artist who used to make money, not a lot, from handmade greeting cards. She used different techniques and materials in making nicely designed artistic greeting cards.
