MONEY IS PRETTY MUCH WORTHLESS!
The money we use today, does not typically have any value other than the value the person doing the buying or selling adds to it. Throughout history, we have used many things as currency, and the items were judged based on the value the person perceives it has. To me, it made a lot more sense to trade items for their worth, like they did back in the day. For example, maybe two farmers could trade items such as cotton and farm animals.
My fear is that we are putting too much value on our currency these days and soon enough, the value of the dollar will be worthless. The items we have and the items we can make is our future, not a piece of paper with a number on it.
Today children are taught that money is important for the standard of living. Sometimes children make their priority "making money" rather than working hard to maintain a good life.
Today, we need money, but tomorrow there could be a demand for something else: a tangible object or service for trade.
The first settlers in China were looking for a suitable place for growing crops and ultimately living.
After researching the reasons why settlers first came to China, I have come to an overall Conclusion. There was a need for water and the Yellow River and another two rivers provided sufficient H2O. The Climate was very suitable for the farmers to raise their crops. The main goal of the inhabitants was to survive and flourish with their crops. The weather seemed too perfect for this. For instance, in the winter it is not too cold and the summers were also not too hot.
There are many sources that claim to be correct on who the first settlers were, but they all tend to agree on the main reason for in habitation, which is the Yellow River.
The Yellow River is the Second Longest River in Asia.
We may know why they came and settled in Asia; however, it is not certain who showed up first. One source claims that the first inhabitants were black Africans, while another source claims that the Chinese evolved from the homo erectus.
