Relationship that exists between Water and Money

Hi,  In the recent past I have been posting  certain  information certain words based on its etymological origin.   I do not know whether you liked it or not.   I welcome your comments and criticism which are very valuable.  Please share your views.

I am going to place before you yet another interesting observation, as we all are connected to financial markets it will certainly impress you.

Today the words we use in English for terms in Financial System are having lot of nexus with water.   The reason that financial terms are connected to water is to be opted out.   One reason for the words to have similarity with water can be understood when we look at nature of business / transactions in the olden days. Yes, in the old time for trades taking place overseas (‘over seas’ in this context should be understood as over water). {However, before the overseas trades took place the transaction in the neighborhood must have taken place; a small quantity perhaps}.

Most of the terms associated with water are used in our financial system (mostly related to monetary system), for instance.
