Those are both ancient concepts.
Now, real money is just numbers on a computer screen. I turn on my computer, go to a website and it claims I have "x" number of dollars. I want to buy something and some cyber dollars go from one computer page to another, and a few days later a package arrives on my doorstep.

Every month more cyber dollars go from my page to a bank's page, and that allows me to stay in my house.
Not sure how we entered this thought. Money, there is no shortage of books on this subject. Gold, paper money? Sort of evolved at one time it was land. It can also be diamonds, art etc. It has also been goats, horses, and even children.

Cyber money. You get into stuff like bit coin. Reality, if I was selling my car, home or a pencil. I will only take CASH. Silver quarters, I will take any that anyone wants to sell me for a quarter.
