It becomes interesting to read that one day when Bloggs had a meal at a restaurant - he haven't had money to pay for his meal and therefore drawed a 20 dollar bill on a napkin - which he offered the restaurant as payment for his meal. I was surprised to read that Bloggs even used his money drawings not just to pay for meals at a restaurant, but also to buy cloth and pay for rent. At the end of the chapter, the author discusses that people may change the way they work with money - if they had a greater understanding of how to deal with money.

Chapter 13
In chapter 13, the author explains how money effects modern mind, or in other words - how people are mentally effected by money. He further discusses how money is important nowadays, and what is associated with somebody who is perceived to have money - a lot of money. For instance, power and control. Throughout the middle of the chapter, the author tells a story of a person called Bloggs, who was a very talented drawer.

Was Bloggs wealthy, or was it just that they perceived him as so that he was able to pay things off with his drawings? Otherwise this is a really interesting concept. We see it today in the presidential elections were Donald Trump's main qualification is that he's rich and somehow people just trust him and think he has a lot of power. People with more money are in general just treated so much better too.
