Default Manna raining from heaven

This is about people having no realistic understanding of what money actually is (at least should be) and think it is all about making a quick profit over nothing.

Virtual wealth. What a brain buster.

Yes, We are a Trinity.

Edit: In English, "god" refers to just any deity that is not the Christian-Judaic one, while "God" with capital G ALWAYS refers to the Christian-Judaic deity.
