I asked my aunt once where did money come from, and she told me that it came from a plant she had in her backyard. I was about 7 or 8 at the time, and i asked her where was it, so she prepared a plant with money covering it...Made us, my cousins and me, believe that until we were 10. I remember my friends asking to see the "money tree" we had at home (I grew up with my aunt and uncle).
