u're so wrong, money can't be 'about' anything really, it has no opinions, goals, intentions, it's a freaking concept first and foremost; it's a fleeting thought, a non-thingamajig.
saying money is about anything is like my neighbor deciding what college my son is going to go to... it's not something they can do, try as they might they can't decide for him, they can only influence his decision.
and that's exactly how the concept of money is used, to influence. what it influences is controlled by it's barer. so in retrospect if money was to be 'about' anything, it'd be about control. but it's still just a concept we allow to manipulate us (if we disregard it's valueless physical form; coin and paper bills).
i use a similar concept to encourage my son to go to bed when i tell him to.
and although software like all man made things can be imagined, actual software is not imaginary... while the concept of money, the perceived value of it, can only be.
omg, ur attempt to devalue all things, and relate their characteristics to money, is totally valueless. i'll pay u ten dollars to delete ur comment.
