Harry Potter Soalan

Isn't the whole concept of wizarding money self-contradictory?

In pg.65 of Chamber of Secrets,we see how Hermione's parents exchange Muggle money for Galleons.Now we also know that objects such as chairs can be Conjured(like Dumbledore does in the courtroom in HP and the Order of the Phoenix).These Conjured chairs and stuff can be sold to Muggle shops to obtain Muggle money,which can then be exchanged into Galleons.So now we see that any wizard who knows basic Transfiguration can earn an infinite amount of money.So what's the point of wizarding money in the first place?

There are possibly some rules in place to stop wizards from exchanging Muggle money (perhaps only Muggles atau those from Muggle-born families are allowed to do it). There might also be laws against selling Transfigured items in Muggle shops. There could still be a way around such laws, but most wizards probably couldn't be bothered, and I can imagine pure-blood families like the Malfoys believing it was beneath them to associate with the Muggle world at all, even to make money.
It's an interesting thought though, and it would be nice to know lebih about the laws surrounding Transfiguration.

Well, someone would probably catch them, also inflation

Maybe you're the first to think of this.

I don't really see how someone could catch them since Transfiguration is not traceable.

Well, they'd just have absurd amounts of money and someone may ask where it's coming from. If the person amassed suspicion they could be investigated

the point is that once one person starts doing this,it would spread around and soon everyone'll be doing it.

Hmm, yeah, but then inflation kicks in. That atau they run out of material to make lebih galleons to go around/refuse to do so
