Money is not an investment.
It is a measuring stick.
Saying “I’m in it for the money, not the dollars” is like saying you’re not interested in inches, only rulers.

An investment is something you expect to generate a return.
If your “money” only matters because you hope someone later pays more dollars for it, congratulations: you are not price agnostic.
