FYI “ The value of a dollar is constantly changing, especially relative to other currencies. Especially in an increasingly cashless society reliant on credit, money is more ethereal than real. Your bank statement has a number on it, but if all the bank’s customers tried to empty their accounts at once, there wouldn’t be enough cash to do it. Think of the scene in “It’s A Wonderful Life” with the bank run on the Bailey Building & Loan. George tells the assembled crowd, “You’re thinking of this place all wrong. As if I had the money back in a safe. The money’s not here. Your money’s in Joe’s house … right next to yours. And in the Kennedy house, and Mrs. Macklin’s house, and a hundred others.” The money in a bank is in a quantum state.”
