What is fiat money?

Fiat money is a government-issued currency that's not backed by a physical commodity such as gold or silver. It's backed by the government that issues it. The value of fiat money is derived from the relationship between supply and demand and the stability of the issuing government rather than the worth of a commodity backing it.

Why is fiat money a good investment?

Fiat money is backed entirely by the full faith and trust in the government that issued it in contrast to commodity-based money such as gold coins or paper bills redeemable for precious metals. This has merit because governments demand that you pay taxes in the fiat money it issues.

How does fiat money get its value?

Generally, fiat money derives its value from the decisions of central banks, rather than through reserves of assets such as gold. Some people, however, use the term fiat currency to describe any money issued by a government and used as legal tender.
