Most often incorrectly understood that the movement of people is to disseminate the gold dinar is as though dismissing the existence of paper money. Precisely this is where we recognize the functions and existence of paper money as medium of exchange.

To eliminate this misunderstanding, let us quote the communication used by one of the world's largest oil company formerly known as British Petroleum (BP). In the year 2002 when they changed its name to BP plc. ; They add the tagline "Beyond Petroleum" in its corporate identity.

It seems that BP wanted to communicate to the world community that they not only engaged in petroleum; because her new identity after the BP has also launched a new business unit called BP Alternative Energy. This new Business Unit which later develop other energies such as solar energy beyond oil, wind, hydrogen etc.. So even though BP's main business which also provides the greatest income is still from the petroleum industry, they are already thinking beyond petroleum – because the oil may not be forever available to explore them – they certainly want to continue to survive despite the major energy source will change from oil to energy-energy other than in oil.

Similar to that done by BP to the above – this is what we do with the movement dissemination Dinar. If BP to develop its strategy based on the prognosis that the oil probably will not be permanently available, then use a prognosis that the movement Dinar banknotes will not be able to survive in the long term.

The prognosis of this bill is supported by a very strong statistically, to the extent we can calculate the half-life of purchasing power of paper money amount which is only 4.3 years; U.S. Dollar is only 5.0 years etc. So if your child was born today and start saving your money for his future amount of paper; then the purchasing power of your savings is to stay 1 / 16 (1 / 2 ^ 4) at the time of your child's 17th birthday!. When you save it in U.S. $, then the purchasing power value of your savings are also living 1 / 16 at the time your child is aged 20 years.

Because of such statistics – the purchasing power of paper money that decays with time – substance that decays and must eventually run out, then we need an alternative to this bill. Another alternative is what I call the currency beyond.

If the bill only serves as a currency – ie a medium of exchange that works only for a moment, then we need to survive in the long term is real money – beyond currency – money that not only serves as a medium of exchange or mediums of exchange or currency, but also functioned as a unit of recording / scales are fair (the unit of account) and also able to maintain the value of the results of our efforts (store of value).

Real money even this should not gold; other objects of value intrinsic to salt can even be money in the broad sense.

We have experienced a crisis when it was 97/98 where our money suddenly falls ¼ of its purchasing power to live it in a few months (even though the purchasing power of our money should just come down from his residence after a 2 ¼-time or part-time 6.8 years!) not only that its purchasing power falls – then we need goods also disappears in the market. Cooking oil, milk powder etc. became seizure in stores that still have stocks.

During the crisis, the money could have disappeared or decreased its purchasing power, but we will eat and drink needs, the needs of our children to milk etc. still need to be met.

So the 'money' in addition to the crisis-prone paper money – should also be part of our survival kit – if we want to survive in the long term. In addition dinars of gold or practical, we can also use goat reserves such as 'saving' us in a very difficult period.

Not just goats that are prescribed in the hadith as a valid long-term revenue source that can be relied upon; anticipation of the crisis through planting in earnest for the past seven years – even a recipe in the Qur'an.

So do not be surprised if the rural community resilience to the crisis as we experienced in 1997/1998 is greater than urban communities. They did not interfere with the monetary crisis because they are already accustomed to living beyond currency.

So let's turn to-do village life, with goats and other livestock, with the trees, with the rice-fields – then when the outbreak spread to the whole world PIIGS – Insha Allah we can survive. Now do we still need the money the paper as a currency or a medium of exchange, but when this paper money loses its purchasing power as it already – we also have to be prepared living beyond currency.
