Abstract
Going along with the common knowledge that money can easily destroy a person, a family, and a healthy business enterprise, this chapter investigates how a currency war can potentially take place. By making use of the systemic yoyo model and Bernanke-Gertler model of fundamental value of capital, this chapter shows how money can be purposefully and strategically employed as a weapon of mass destruction. Based on how a currency war could be possibly raged against a nation.
