>for many of us, money is only experienced through our phones, as a number on a screen. You pay your rent with one app, you buy put options with another. The number goes up, it goes down, it lives in the little portal we hold in our hands.

And decades ago it was a number written down on a little piece of paper, and before that it was little pieces of “precious” metal locked away somewhere.

At least nowadays amateurs have a better chance to be literate.
