13-8a2 The demand for money stems from fundamental uncertainty about both the future environment and the future-self

Uncertainty principle in economics, as it were. Uncertainty arises because nothing can extend across the multiverse—that is, the fundamental uncertainty is derived from the laws of physics. Money allows you to cope with the uncertainty.develop

The laws of physics implied that something like money will be demanded, and it was delivered—the questions are what invented money, and whether money is invention or not.develop

“The desire to keep a cash balance stems from fundamental uncertainty as to the right time for making purchases, whether of capital or of consumers’ goods. Also important are a basic uncertainty about the individual’s own future value scale and the desire to keep cash on hand to satisfy any changes that might occur. Uncertainty, indeed, is a fundamental feature of all human action, and uncertainty about changing prices and changing value scales are aspects of this basic uncertainty.”
