Before money is known, trading between human beings rely on Barter System. Because barter was only done between two parties who need each other by chance of goods or services of another party, then trade would be difficult to occur actively. Trade barriers is due to a condition called coincidence of wants (which incidentally needs of each suit) as a prerequisite for the occurrence of barter? not easily met.

Ease facilitated by the existence of the concept of money is then used for thousands of years later? up to now? become a major engine of trade. In a trade that uses the concept of money, should not longer exist the condition coincidence of wants.
