The obvious thing would have been to pick a green theme for a blog about money, but money isn't green. Money is yellow or white.
Paper is unnatural money, enforced by government fiat. Real money is a commodity chosen by the free market. It must be durable, popular among many in a given society, and must have a high value per volume or weight. These attributes are what make money money. A money must be a durable store of value.
Gold and silver fit the bill nicely, and have throughout history.
I intend to use this blog to muse on monetary topics, an interest I have acquired as a side effect of studying Austrian economics.
