History
Money is used as a means of paying for goods and services. It is defined as being any object that has a unit of value, can be stored, and is used as a medium of exchange.
According to the International Monetary Fund, money is:
“A store of value, which means people can save it and use it later—smoothing their purchases over time,” or “a unit of account, that is, it provides a common base for prices,” and “a medium of exchange, something that people can use to buy and sell from one another.”
