| Jun 22, 2016 at 14:28 | comment | added | krman | I'm still struggling to word this question to not be too broad. Answers like user21969's and Murphy's almost perfectly answer the question I have in my head (particularly the distinction between the people who have access to time dilation and the regular people, but I don't know if specifying that is too specific). | |

| Jun 22, 2016 at 12:23 | comment | added | Cyrus | I don't see the difference from the perspective of the banks. Some person deposits money and returns later to withdraw it, with interest. Whether that person was going about daily life or on a time-suspended holiday doesn't matter to the bank, it makes money by investing or lending the deposit in the meantime. Also, imagine coming back from dilation-land to reclaim the money that you deposited at Lehman Brothers... | |

| Jun 22, 2016 at 7:31 | comment | added | clem steredenn | Hi krman, welcome to Worldbuilding. There are many questions at once, which generally makes it hard to answer. Furthermore, there could be many various answers and could you indicate which would be prefered? And finally, we miss some information: yeah you might get time dilation effects, which may allow you to speculate, but maybe the cost of doing so by far overpass the potential market gain... I would recommend to ask separate follow up questions. Maybe first, you need to build your market and monetary system. And then build your way up until you get to your main question. | |
