„An object that is not in short supply is not an economic good; no prices are asked for it or paid for it. As money must necessarily be an economic good, the notion of a money that would not be scarce is absurd.“

Ludwig von Mises

Value, in my mind, is always achieved through scarcity, because it is something that is hard to obtain.

Something is scarce because you need either a lot of work, a lot of time or both to get it.
