MONEY. A chart of (almost) all of it, where it is, and what it can do.

Nearly every amount has a cited source— when possible, a scholarly work or government publication. A list of sources is available at http://xkcd.com/980/sources/ (link’s not working but I’m assuming it’s either been assaulted with traffic OR he hasn’t posted it quite yet).
