The confusion re:
MONEY
-
Money used to stand for things like it, that is, fixed, standard
units
-
Now money goes with attention, in indefinite amounts
-
So good attention-getters (stars) end up with scads of money
-
Those who notice only the money think they can simply
invest in the stars, especially when they are stars of business
-
But the stars take for granted that investments are the same
as other tributes, spending it as they wish…
-
And the investors lose their shirts (as in the case of
Enron, Global Crossing, the dot-coms, etc.)
