Satoshi's Forest
by Moo
Once upon a time, a brother and sister went for a walk in the woods behind their house.
Big brother Sam was telling his little sister Cam about how he finally saved up enough money to buy a car, but the bank wouldn’t allow him to withdraw all of his money at once.
“It took me so long to save up the money because everything is getting more expensive! The bank says it’s a lot of money to withdraw at once and they don’t want me to do something sneaky with my money. I really just want to pay for my car in cash! If I withdraw it all, I would have to pay taxes on the interest earned by having it in that Savings Account. The banker also told me I could apply for a loan, but then I would have to pay interest on borrowing money. Why should I pay the bank for accessing my own money that I worked hard for? I wish money made sense!”
Cam didn’t understand everything Sam was saying, but what did make sense didn’t sound fair. After all, it was his money and no one else should have the power to tell him how to use it. “No wonder Mom and Dad are always upset when they talk about money!”
As they wove their way through a familiar old oak grove, they noticed a glimmer coming from the far side of the dell. They had never ventured that far before, but there was plenty of daylight left for an adventure!
