money

It turns out that having the discipline to live frugally, to invest rather than spend, to mend and make do, and to be able to live for longer and longer periods of time without having to work, are true measures of wealth.

He who is not satisfied with little, is satisfied with nothing.

Being poor is not having too little, it is wanting more.

As Colonel Greene pointed out in Mutual Banking, all the money could disappear tomorrow morning and the wealth of the planet would remain the same. However, if the wealth disappeared – if squinks from the Pink Dimension dragged it off to null-space or something – the money would be worth nothing.
