I somehow remember the MONEY datatype has some problems and might be
removed. Now I didn´t follow this topic closely enough, but now I've
encountered I could use it pretty well. Of course a DECIMAL datatype fits
the bill as good since I do not need the currency symbol in psql's output.

Before I set up my DB I'd like to know which type to prefer.
