Money does not exist except as a concept in the imagination. If you did not place the idea of currency as your king then who cares about a fine?

Money is not imaginary. Money is a division of worth of labor. Since I can trade my Dollars for goods and services and I must provide goods or services to make more of that imaginary money- it has value because we agree it does.

The barter system is too hard. I need some Apples but my skill is Home building (not really, but...) there is no way to really trade this- So we provide a "perceived value" attached to the currency (be it Gold, Silver , paper or electronic) which I can parcel out into smaller purchases.

Funny the people who keep hawking this "Imaginary paper fiat money" ideal will gladly take your Dollars for their services (and spend them) and will gladly take your imaginary paper dollars for their "real" Gold.

Again, Philosophically speaking you are correct. real World application, not so much.

Federal Reserve NOTES are not money, they are "legal tender" states it right there in black and white.

There you go, projecting your beliefs on a NOTE and calling it "money", your premiss is flawed because you are ignorant.

Money is a generic term. You work, your paid, you spend...Money.
