    All money is theoretical money.

    The larger the amount the more theoretical it is, but even the crisp $5 bill in your pocket is just the promise of violence if somebody doesn’t have enough $$$ to pay their housing costs at the end of the month or their taxes at the end of the year.

      Actual money is not theoretical money as such, don’t conflate the theoretical nature of money with the subject at hand. Kind of discredits you that you made that argument.
