If the world didn't have negative numbers, what would people do instead of giving bills and such? Would there just be punishments for not paying it all?


In a world without debt, it would also be a lot harder to buy houses (especially these days and in the future!) because you would need all the money for it, and wouldn't be able to get loans from the bank.]]> 2018-05-12 02:44:52 UTC https://padlet.com/7jones/heqr4oj5axw6/wish/260104947 https://padlet.com/7jones/heqr4oj5axw6/wish/260261719 2018-05-13 19:23:15 UTC https://padlet.com/7jones/heqr4oj5axw6/wish/260261719 https://padlet.com/7jones/heqr4oj5axw6/wish/260269572 Confusing because everything that we label below 0 wouldn't be the same and we would have to change it.
