Money (n.) is a link between intersubjective and intrasubjective reality, for it circulates all values, whether physical or psychical, mediating external and internal worlds. As such, desires that do not have an exchange value are alienated. The power of realizing these desires without an outlet is thus necessarily projected onto money.
Money (n.) is laughing gas. That is to say, it is the crux of an important transference-countertransference problem.
Money (n.) is merely the point of transference for shit as gift in early personal development.

Money (n.) and contact fused in the dentist sister's slip, 'Kontant' for 'Kontakt' — one wonders whether the two unmarried sisters would have more contact with young men if they had more ready money.
