Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and paper notes of one kind or another. Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of notes. Paper money is easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Cheques, banker’s cards, and credit cards are being used increasingly too. In a bank you usually have a current account, which is one where you are paid your salary and then withdraw money to pay your everyday bills. You may also have a saving account where you deposit any extra money that you have and only take money out when you want to spend it on something special. Sometimes the bank may lend you money – this is called a bank loan. When you buy something in a shop, you usually pay for it outright but sometimes you buy on credit. Sometimes you may be offered a discount or a reduction on something you buy at a shop. If you want to return something, which you have bought, to a shop, you may be given a refund. The money that you pay for services is usually called fees. If you buy something that you feel was very good value, it’s a bargain. The government collects money from citizens through taxes. We should distinguish between income, inheritance and value-added tax, and corporation tax on profits paid by companies and custom duties. The government also sometimes pays out money to people in need, e.g. unemployment benefit, disabilities allowances and student grants.
