It's not just your imagination. The way our money works, how it's created, spent, and saved, might be speeding up life itself. In Fast Money Fast Times, Max Matles explores how modern money has changed the way we live - from short attention spans and disposable homes to viral content and pop songs designed for algorithms. We've built a world and a money system that's always in a hurry. This book takes you on a journey through history, culture, and money, explained in clear, simple language. You'll discover how money from the past helped people build things that lasted: art meant to be treasured for generations, and cities designed to stand for centuries. Reliable money supported families, shaped futures, and reminded us to think beyond today. You'll be invited to rethink the very concept of money as you know it - something we often take for granted. Along the way, you'll explore how ideas sparked by things like Bitcoin could help us slow down, focus on what matters, and build a world we're proud to pass on to future generations.
