Benjamin Franklin did not discover electricity, but simply discovered that lightning was electricity.
No, Benjamin Franklin did not invent money. Money existed many centuries before Benjamin Franklin lived. You can read in the Old Testament of the Bible about Abraham using money in 2,000 B.C. That was 4,000 years ago. However, Benjamin Franklin invented a number of different things such as bifocals and the Franklin stove and profited from his inventions. When he died, either he or George Washington was the richest man in the United States.
Benjamin Franklin's stove was not the first, and there a number of much earlier designs. Which of these was the first stove depends on what is meant by the word stove. There are masonry and ceramic stoves that were older in Europe, and the Kang bed stove in China. But these did not provide the same utility as the Franklin stove. Today, the original Franklin stove would probably not be called a stove either, but rather a fireplace insert. The stoves sold as Franklin stoves are not the same design, and were developed by people who came after Franklin.
