I think gunpowder had the most impact on or world. Although it has a negative impact on today it has the most. We use gunpowder for guns and grenades but, they are also used for firework to entertain us.

I think Paper Money had the biggest impact on us today. I think this because we still use it today. Even though we still use coins, we use dollar bills as well. I can't imagine how heavy it would be to carry all those coins around. Overall, I think this had a positive impact on us because without it, we would have to carry a bunch of coins around

I agree with you because if it were not for the paper money we would still have to be lugging around coins to pay for things instead of having light paper money to keep in your pocket or wallet.

I didn't think about that it seems so obvious that it can be overlooked and not even recognized as a Chinese invention. I would like to give you my props for reminding me of that

I agree but disagree.I agree because we use it for currency today.But People will get robbed and lose money they earned.Also how will we STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR OURSELVES!We may need paper money but I'd rather be in a normal house and not get robbed instead be in a slightly nicer house and get robbed every other day!(example)

I agree with you Zach because we still use paper money today. Also paper money is still lighter then coins and easier to carry around. I could not imanige having to carry around a lot of heavy coins to pay for things.

I agree because without the paper money, we would have so many coins to carry around. Even though we still use coins, we don't use as many or carry around as many.

I agree with zach that paper money was probably the invention that had the most impact today. I think that because without money who knows where we would be today. We would not be able to go school, buy essentials, and more.

I think paper money had the biggest impact on today because if it were not for paper money things would be so much different. Instead of having thin, light paper money in your pocket or wallet you would have to lug around heavy metal coins in our pockets or on strings attached to our pants weighing us down making it harder for us to pay for things. We also have the same size money but they are worth different amounts. If you are going to the grocery store you might only have to bring a 50 dollar bill instead of 50 heavy metal coins.

I agree with you, Jayleen. I agree with you because if the Chinese haven't invented paper money, we would be lugging around the extra weight with the coins. I also agree how you stated that it would be way easier/lighter to carry around paper money than coins. I can't imagine how different the world would be if we had to carry around a ton of coins instead of thin/light paper money

I agree with you because it would be such a hassle to lug around heavy coins everywhere. Thin, light paper money is so much easier.

I agree with you Jayleen, but I also disagree with you. Just like today, instead of carrying around 25 pennies we have quarter. So i think they would have a system. But i Agree with you that it made it easier.

I think that paper money had the biggest impact on our world today. I think the Chinese helped us from carrying heavy metal coins around. It is so much easier to just carry light paper in your pocket than large coins. Paper money is lighter and doesn't use valuable minerals.

I think the most important invention is the paper money. Without paer money we would still be using coins only. If we only used coins it would be very expensive.

I think that gunpowder had a big impact, too. We do use it for guns and bombs during wars (also fireworks). Without gunpowder, it would be a lot harder during wars.

I think that paper money and gunpowder had the most impact on our world today. The money is useful because without it, we would still be using coins for everything. Gunpowder is useful because it is used for weapons in wars back then and nowadays.

I think is the paper money had the most impact on our world today.Because it will be easier to just get 20 or 5 bucks instead of counting the coins.

I think that paper money had the biggest and most important impact on us and our world today. I think this because we still use it (and coins) today. But, unlike coins, paper money doesn't weigh a lot and is easier to carry around. If we didn't have paper money I think this world would be a lot different.

I think that paper money was the best advancement/ has the biggest impact on the world today. Paper money is still used today and is still lighter then coins. Also paper money is worth more money compaired to coins. For example a 50 dollar bill is worth more then 50 cents. So, you would have to use more coins to pay for stuff compaired to paper money. Could you imagine having to carry around a ton of coins everywhere if you want to get something.
