But one of the graduate students said, can you believe you're doing homework?

This is amazing.

I've had jobs.

Jobs are the worst.

Yeah.

I get really frustrated with the philosophy of money, and I get really frustrated with the phrase fiat or the idea of fiat money, because fiat to me is a veil.

It just says it's magic.

The state says, poof, that's money, and they wave their hands, they say fiat, and then you have something and that's money, and how it worked doesn't really matter.

I think it really matters how we manufacture money.

Banks manufacture our money.

The Fed manufactures a different kind of money.

I love that list you guys came up with of all the dollars.

I keep trying to list all the dollars I can come up with.

I have not completed the list yet.

I think once, man, I'm going to embarrass myself if I try to recreate it, but I got up to like 15 different kinds of dollars.

Wow.

You know, you've got money market dollars.

Now you've got stable coins, euro dollars, of course.

You know, if you get a check from your employer and you don't have a bank account, you've got to go to a check casher.
