Transactions must be included in a block to be properly completed. When you send a transaction, it is broadcast to miners. Miners can then optionally include it in their next blocks. Miners will be more inclined to include your transaction if it has a higher transaction fee.

Quoted from the blog:

Quote
Baseball cards or comics or YuGiOh cards could be used as money because someone somewhere values them.

I can walk up to a barn that the owner doesn't want, tear off a one foot board, then sell it for $3.00--another something from nothing example.
