“Money is a terrible master but an excellent servant.” -P.T. Barnum “…Whoever controls the volume of money in any country is absolute master of all industry and commerce.” -President James Garfield “Money never made a man happy yet, nor will it. The more a man has, the more he wants. Instead of filling a vacuum, it makes one.” -Benjamin Franklin The above quotes about money are just a few examples of the many statements made by politicians, businessmen, philosophers, and ordinary people throughout the ages, showing that money has always attracted a lot of attention and controversy. The meaning of money, how it was created, and how it influenced everyday life for Americans inspired Wright Patman throughout his professional life as a Congressman from 1928 to 1975, as chairman of the powerful United States House Committee on Banking and Currency from 1963 to 1975 and a life-long populist in the good sense of the word. He defended the little guy, farmers, veterans and small businessmen against big business, big chain stores, big banks and especially the Federal Reserve system. Together with his Subcommittee on Domestic Finance, Patman released in 1964 A Primer on Money explaining how the US monetary system works and indicated where it needed reform. As a supplement to that report, he released Money Facts--169 Questions and Answers on Money, which is designed to highlight in question and answer form the basic points brought out in A Primer on Money. It answers, for example, what money is: “Money is anything that people will accept in exchange for goods or services, in the belief that they may, in turn, exchange it, now or later, for other goods or services,”, but it also raises many other questions such as: - Who issues currency? - What is a central bank? - What is active monetary policy? - What is the main problem of the Federal Reserve System? Although this publication is over fifty years old, and some changes have been made to the Federal Reserve System since then, this booklet is still relevant and important to understand more about the history and meaning of money and how the Federal Reserve System plays a crucial role in the US economy. This report is interesting reading for students of monetary policy, academics, policymakers, journalists, and anyone interested to learn about the basics of money and the monetary system.

Saving money is as easy as taking a breath. If you are a teen or a young adult who is in the process of entering college or completing college, lending institutions have selected your name for a pre-approve credit card. It is reported that 45% of young adults have more than $20,000 in student loans or credit card debt before they reach their 25th birthday. But you don't have to fall victim to long-term payment plans any longer. This book is a flashlight in a dark room. It will help you find your way out if you turn it on. It is filled with important information that will teach you how to eliminate debt quickly, while on your path to financial wealth.

You can live a debt-free life and enjoy the fruits of your labor while you are young and energetic. You can design your financial portfolio in a way that will give you better options; like working part-time, taking an early retirement, or traveling and seeing the world.

Excerpt from How to Save Money: The Care of Money Plain Facts About Every Kind of Investment an Exposé of the Prevalent Fraudulent and Get-Rich-Quick Schemes Valuable and Authentic Information for All Moderate Money-Savers and Small Investors The writer of this book feels that it is advisable, although it may not be necessary, to announce positively that he is not connected, either directly or indirectly, with any form of investment, or with any bank or brokerage establishment, or with any institution having anything to do with the sale of stocks, bonds, or securities of any kind. He has no axe to grind at the reader's expense, no scheme to further, and no investment to recommend. He is telling the truth, the whole truth, within the field of his light. He attempts to get at rock-bottom and to reach the sub-cellar of financial fact. He is aware that on all questions, and especially those of investment, opinions differ, and that most honest men cross swords when they attempt to appraise, value, and recommend. What one reliable man considers a good form of investment, may not appeal to the judgment of another equally honest and cautious.
