Overview

Money talks but it doesn't always speak the truth. It's also far more than a medium of exchange and a store of value: money is a status symbol, a friendship destroyer, an opportunity creator, a psychological blocker, an obsession, a dream, a curse, an albatross and an elephant in the room. And if money makes the world go round, it's spinning us faster than ever these days. Do we stand any chance of bridging the wealth gap? How does money influence our behaviour? What part does it play in the erosion of democracy and institutional trust? Should financial literacy be taught in schools? And does anyone actually understand crypto? This edition of Griffith Review follows the money to tally the past, present and future of our filthy lucre.
