"すべてのお金は信念の問題です"

Simplified Meaning:
Money only has value because people trust and agree that it does. If everyone stopped believing in the value of money, it would just be paper or metal. Imagine you're at a toy store with a $20 bill. You can get a toy because the store owner believes the $20 is worth a toy. If that trust didn't exist, you couldn't buy anything with it. This idea can help us understand why it's important to maintain trust in economic systems. For instance, during a financial crisis, when people lose faith in the currency or banks, economic chaos can follow. So, if we remember that money's worth comes from shared belief, we can see the importance of maintaining confidence in our economy.
