What is money? Why have it? What are its functions? Atlanta Fed vice president and economist Mike Bryan answers these questions and more in a video segment of our second-quarter Classroom Economist, "What Is Money?" In addition to the "Ask the Economist" video with Bryan, the Classroom Economist web page will offer a lesson demonstration on money, a resources guide for learning and teaching about money, and other tools for the classroom.
