World without banks

A beautiful building of the Croatian National Bank – what a contrast! I've always admired the beautiful modern-with-classical-elements architecture of a CNB, that was constructed by Viktor Kovačić, a very well known Croatian architect. This building was originally Stock Exchange Palace, but it was relocated recently that I wrote you about before.
Passing by it, I cannot help but wonder, what would the world be like without banks?

P.S. I'm going away for a few days so I'll put shorter/simpler posts next two days. Pozdrav! ;)
