I read in the documentation that the money type is depreciated.  It
says to use the  to_char function and NUMERIC/decimal instead.  Why was
the money type depreciated when it was so useful?  How would be the
best way to use to_char and numeric to replace that type since I don't
want to be using a depreciated data type.

regards,
