A thread titled “In the end, this world runs on money” popped up on the Nanimo Jikkyou G board, sparking a debate over whether things like class, happiness, and love can actually be bought with money. One comment arguing “class can’t be bought with money” drew a popular pushback: “You can buy class too — if you’re rich, you don’t really need it anyway.” The thread snowballed into discussions of happiness theory and fantasies about what people would do with infinite money.

Just dump it all in the S&P 500 and let it sit, you'd pull in about 30 million yen a year
You could sleep all day if you wanted
But without money you'd be grinding away for like 20,000 yen a day

Money's just a means to an end
It's like in-game currency that lowers the difficulty
It makes things easier to get, but whether you actually get them is a different story
