When I was a little girl I used to think that money was made out of regular old paper. But then I grew up and sent it through the washing machine several times. This is when I began to realize that the process of making money must be a bit more sophisticated than I thought. Today, there are many movies out there that show people trying to come up with ways to counterfeit currency. Methods are always begin tried, but the people are always caught because the process involved in how to make money is very complex and requires special equipment.
