The Beginning of Credit
In ancient times, when people began to trade things, there was a need for borrowing and lending. Take the trade between Kron the hunter and Nokk the toolmaker as an example. Kron wanted Nokk’s tools for hunting, but he had nothing to trade with Nokk, so he promised to trade the animals from his future hunts for Nokk’s tools. Nokk needed animals for food, so he agreed. This is how “credit” began.
