A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Viva pecunia is a Latin term that means "living money." During the Saxon period, cattle were used as a form of currency and were referred to as viva pecunia. They were traded at regulated prices.

During the Saxon period, if someone owed a debt, they could pay it off by giving the creditor a certain number of cattle. The cattle were considered viva pecunia, or living money.

Another example of viva pecunia in action is when a farmer needed to purchase goods from a merchant. Instead of using coins or paper money, the farmer could trade a certain number of cattle for the goods.

These examples illustrate how viva pecunia was used as a form of currency during the Saxon period. Cattle were valued and traded just like coins or paper money are today.

im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
