It is no longer money to be used.

It is just a marker for their "I'm richer than you, so I'm BETTER than you" scorecards. They have never felt resource-less. They have never understood the basic necessity of funds, or the UTILITY of funds as a life sustaining thing. It is a total and complete disconnect from the way most people live.
