Reseña del libro "From Cows to Cryptos: A Brief and Highly Subjective History of Money (en Inglés)"
From the first cowrie shells to the current craze for crypto, money has played a powerful role in making the world go around, or at least in paying for the hamsters who do all the work. Now in its second printing (the first got jammed due to a paper tray malfunction), this slender-yet-somehow-still-too-long tome by Carlo Scevola – economist, international business consultant andrunner-up “Most Likely to Succeed” in Sig. Romana’s third-grade class – has produced a scholarly masterpiece that captures the essence of money’s history without relying on tiresome facts or accuracy.Mr. Scevola – a keen student of finance whose interest in currency extends well beyond slipping singles into g-strings – has realized his lifelong ambition to communicate vital knowledge to the next generation of money-users, bringing to life key moments in the history of currency through storytelling far more interesting than the actual events periodically alluded to herein. Readers who take the trouble to look at the words and not just the pictures will gain invaluable knowledge including:• How one of the earliest civilizations used giant boulders for money because Instagram had not been invented and they had time to kill.• How the Chinese printed currency on rice paper, which was captured during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894 and used for sushi rolls.• How Western Union created the phenomenon of the “imprisoned Nigerian prince in need of your financial kindness” just to stimulate demand for wire transfers.• How the money of the future will be completely different from the paper currency of today. Or maybe exactly the same, just futurey, with a picture of President AOC gracing every denomination. Like, who really knows?Like the most famous works on finance – Smith’s "Wealth of Nations", Kiyosaki’s "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", Madoff’s "In Your Heart You Knew this Was a Scam" – Scevola’s is also a book.
