i would say so, to me money means something i could use to buy some of the important things i need to survive. I also use it to buy the nice things that i want. but to me money isn't a big thing except when you have none and bills pile up like crazy. something i noticed that is kinda crazy, i feel better when i have three dollars in my pocket instead of fifty dollars. to me i try to stay the same way i am with or without money. many people go crazy and change and believe that they are better than you because they have more money than you would and that bugs me. Money means i can eat, sleep, live, and be comfortable in one place without the fear of having it disappear. Money can also mean that you are being controlled and its dangerous because many people will do anything to have it or get it. it's a very dangerous tool that can be used either wisely or greedily.

Currency is a improvement over trade alone, it's not the money that's evil it's the 'exchange rate' mechanism that's the source of the evil.
Agreeing on and according a specific unchanging value to an official currency note is convenient.... but changing that value afterwards as the 'exchange rate' does is wrong, It leads to things like 1% of the world population owning 95% of the world's wealth.

It's only real because we want it to be real.
Money is the ultimate lottery. WE may have non, but we give it value in the hope we may get some.
It's the ultimate dream. The only problem is, to have the rich, you must have mega poverty. Like all gamblers we can go cold turkey on mass and make the rich equals. But no, we might win the next hand !

It is a medium of exchange. Anything people agree to use then has value, paper with pictures of dead presidents is real money if we say it is.

It is real, though it has no inherent value.
Money is a means, though hard to come by.
