Why Do We Need Money?

Money is like a special ticket that helps people trade things more easily. Imagine you have an apple, and your friend has a toy, instead of trying to swap them directly (which can be tricky), money lets you give your apple to someone who wants it, and get a toy from someone else who wants the apple. It’s like having a magic coin that makes trading simple and fair.
