Presented By: Sunita Amir Umair Qureshi S.M.Younus Kamran Ahmed

WHAT IS MONEY???
Money means more than the coin, paper or plastic to acquire goods and services. Money is linked to complex emotions, feelings and behaviors. Each person has "money messages" that are based on past experiences, what you observed and what you were taught. These money messages reflect the attitudes, perceptions and expectations that influence your financial behaviors today.

MONEY IS POWER, OR SHALL WE SAY, THE MONOPOLY TO CREATE CREDIT MONEY AND CHARGE INTEREST IS ABSOLUTE POWER. -ALEX JAMES

PAPER MONEY

Currency in the form of government notes and bank notes Cash in the form of banknotes Currency in paper form, such as government bank notes, as distinguished from metal currency.

HISTORY
The paper was firstly originated as in the form of coins of semi precious metals But it was very soon replaced by the currency notes due to problems like their heavy weights, depreciation, leas availability of metals and difficulty of carrying bulk amounts.

Today bank notes have even become water and fire proof ensuring long life and lesser depreciation

SOME INTERESTING FACTS

Most banknotes are made from cotton paper with a weight of 80 to 90 grams per square meter. The cotton is sometimes mixed with linen, abaca, or other textile fibers.

Early Chinese banknotes were printed on paper made of mulberry bark and this fiber is used in Japanese banknote paper today.
Unlike most printing and writing paper, banknote paper is infused with polyvinyl alcohol or gelatin to give it extra strength. Most banknotes are made using the mold made process in which a watermark and thread is incorporated during the paper forming process The thread is a simple looking security component found in most banknotes. It is however often rather complex in construction comprising fluorescent, magnetic, metallic and micro print elements.
