All trust involves vulnerability and risk, and nothing would count as trust if there were no possibility of betrayal.

Trust is a skill learned over time so that, like a well-trained athlete, one makes the right moves, usually without much reflection.

We also confuse trust with familiarity.

There is a European Central Bank, of course, established and it has the structure similar to the Federal Reserve system, not precisely the same but similar.

Some countries that are close to Europe that already hold Deutschemarks, clearly would automatically hold euros, those are countries in Eastern Europe mainly, a few countries in Africa.

The major material advantage, financial advantage from having a reserve currency is that between 200 and 300 billion dollar bills, that may be twenty, fifty, hundred dollar bills as well as ones, exist in the world - a lot of them in Russia as you all know I'm sure.

Building trust means thinking about trust in a positive way.
