Answer 1

Based on http://jadira.sourceforge.net

Money Types typically consist of a currency and amount. Jadira makes it possible to store only the amount to the database with the currency configured using a parameter. For example:

@Column
@Type(type = "org.jadira.usertype.moneyandcurrency.joda.PersistentMoneyAmount",
    parameters = {@org.hibernate.annotations.Parameter(name = "currencyCode", value = "USD")})
private Money money;

Alternatively, with other types two columns to hold the amount an currency:

@Columns(columns = { @Column(name = "MY_CURRENCY"), @Column(name = "MY_AMOUNT") })
@Type(type = "org.jadira.usertype.moneyandcurrency.joda.PersistentMoneyAmountAndCurrency")
private Money money;
