Title: The Money Trees
Post by: masonspappy on February 17, 2014, 02:19:10 PM
Inspired by a remark by N-Drju a few weeks ago "Money doesn't grow on trees, not even xFrog trees..."
Which got me to thinking.
I envision a quiet walkway of gold bullion, line by American dollars oaks and Russian Rubble trees, plus a few quarter bushes.
I thought about adding a few thumb tack bushes and nickle/dime shrubs, but decided against them for obvious reasons.

Sure. They mature at 3%  per annum, compounded quarterly   ;D

Fantastic idea, and actually you hit the nail's head; money is nothing but some leaves of paper, a deal between people. But I'd like a quick stroll there, though. Taking my picknick basket with me (to fill)  :D

Amusing and nicely done, having one of those in my back garden would be fruitful.

@ Kaedorg - Some things are definitely worth waiting for!

One more thing I would suggest yet is to create some transgenic species of Quercus Dollarus and Arbora Rubbli. Like, you know... inflation-resistance, fast growth...

I did not know about these trees. So all the debt talk is just fear mongering then right? I mean there is plenty of money! We can just waste it!

Oh man! I cant believe I did not know money really did grow on trees! Some one tell congress not to worry then!.. Oh wait, they don't worry anyway.  >:(
