Show me The money...

I was thinking.(ok y'all can stop laughing...i have a brain,i use it...)
I was thinking.......so where does the money come from?
No, think about it..an arbit person would get his salary from some company.the company would get money frrom clients.assuming a client to be a businessperson, he'd get money from his business, indirectly from the people.........
So its this cycle, see?a cycle, which is absolutely baseless, frameless, and wheel-less, since actual money, paper, coin, whatever, has no value!
So what has value is the concept of money....the concept of things having a value......
So whole countries, economies, people, the whole world is intricately linkied together (sorta like a jungle gym?) by this simple yet complicated concept??
And one could take a metaphorical machete and hack at its roots and all these complicated spiderwebby skyscrapers of profit and loss and exchange rates and economics that we've built will just come crashing down around our ears and we'd be back where we began....
But it'd be tough..
Coz what we've done...in centuries of formulating this concept of money, then buliding up all these skyscrapers around it, we have forgotten that real "money" is, in essence, just a concept and nothing else....
Its so bad, its morphed from a concept, to something concrete, to something so deep-rooted within us.....something we live and die for....

it really is rather......well? astounding, astonishing, and vaguely sad....
but then again.....
hmm..
