This is a question that is nearly impossible to answer.
First, "money" in the forms of various trade goods were used in North America by the natives, well before European settlers arrived. There isn't much information on what was the "first" and even what kind of goods they used as money depended on the individual tribe.
If you mean what year did the US Federal Government start striking coins, that would be 1792 when trial pieces were struck in limited numbers.
However, things start to get a little cloudy when you go back before 1792. If you could look at what the colonists used as money back in, say, 1777, you'd find a wide variety of coins used. You'd find a lot of Spanish silver reales, some British copper half-pennies and farthings, you'd find some copper coins struck by the individual states such as Virginia or Massachusetts, you'd find some Continental Currency paper money still circulating and you'd also find plenty of privately made tokens in gold, silver and especially copper. All these things were accepted as money back then and, aside from the Spanish and British coins, had domestic production within the boundaries of the US. Unlike today where nearly every transaction is done in dollars and cents, in the early US you'd find a multitude of different systems and currencies, each with different rates of acceptance. You'd hear prices discussed in "bits" or fractions of the Spanish 8 Reale coin, or in Pounds, Shillings and Pence.
So, in the end it is really impossible to say who created the first piece of money in the US because there were so many things used as money back before the US federal government introduced their dollar and even as recently as the US civil war, Spanish silver coins were still widely accepted and legal tender.
There are many variations of the game of chess. You can play a type of team chess called bughouse, a one-on-one version of bughouse called crazy-house, there is blitz, which is speed chess. There is backwards chess, where you set up your pieces on the opposite side of the board, so that pawns are only one move away from promoting, there is sideways chess, which is the same thing, just the pieces are lined up vertically on the sides of the board, and there is suicide chess, where you must make a capture if there is one available, and the point of the game is to lose all your pieces, including your king.
Moves in chess are determined by the nature of the pieces and the spaces available for a legal move. Any chess piece can move backwards except for the pawn - and even the pawn can move backwards in a sense, if it reaches the back of the board and is promoted.
Well, there are plenty of advantages in playing a game!
You can ease stress, have fun, and can receive enjoyment in your life.

Yes, the king may capture the piece that is checking it.
The origins of chess go back some 1500 years to its earliest forms in India in the 6th century AD. Over the years it went from Persia to the Muslim world and finally to Southern Europe where by the 15th century it became a close version of the game that we know today.

No, only the piece it lands on at the end of its move.
The board game in which players castle to protect their king and/or develop a rook is called Chess. To castle, the king and rook being castled can not have moved, the king may not be in check, there may not be a piece between the castling king and rook, and an opponent's piece may not be attacking the squares in which the king moves. To castle, the king moves two squares either towards the kingside rook or the queenside rook, and the rook is placed on the square the king passed through.
Castling takes one chess turn.
Reaching the end of the chess-board is only significant to the pawn who then can be promoted to any chess piece other than the King .
