Many of us take money for granted as a certainty, but what exactly
is money? Jacob Goldstein, co-host of NPR’s Planet Money podcast,
explores that question in his book, “Money: The True Story of a
Made-Up Thing.” Goldstein argues that monetary systems depend on a
collective belief that an object, such as a piece of metal or
paper, is worth a given amount. The history of money stretches back
centuries and continues to evolve in surprising ways. We’ll talk
with Goldstein about the origin of money as a fictional concept
that nonetheless shapes our lives.
