What lies behind the interest rate?

You’re used to using money all the time. You receive it for things you do and you give it for things you need. But have you ever asked yourself what role interest rates play in your money?

The other half of the story is something we rarely think about, but it’s something just as important.   What if I told you that interest rates have a powerful effect on human behavior; that they specifically produce and reinforce an emotional system of selfishness and a physical system of scarcity? And what if I told you that the type of money you use affects your perception of time and the value of things relative to their place in the future.
