Where did the money go?

With the recent financial crisis, you have many people writing/asking, "where's the money?" 


I wouldn't go through the long, windy version on how the greedy bastards have been creating money out of thin air, besides it can't possibly be their fault right? Money is an idea, and if they can expand that idea, then fair enough if they can do it. But my point is exactly that, many people have been deluded. Money does not grow on trees. The Russian Scientists who'd been lured by money to work on Wallstreet as traders should know that, the numbers work, but it's much more than just numbers.

When it comes crashing down in the current financial crisis, we wonder where the money went? Well, if I tell you that my old surf bag is worth $100, and by the time you put it on ebay and only managed to fetch $1? Come on, don't blame me!

But through this crisis. I have so much more respect for people who actually generate real value in our economy, by that I mean people who actually dig soil and plant real tomatoes that I can put into my sandwiches.
