Correction TJ, contrary to your attempt at mythology, I am deep in the LRQuadrant.
By adopting a different persona, as an actor adopts a different character, I was able to move somewhat and squeaked into the LLQuadrant.
I have no idea what sort of personality transplant one needs to get into the upper quadrants were "normal" people are apparently represented.
I know from my life's experience that I am not in the same quadrant as many people, let alone most.
TJ, my money is more ethereal than electrons. Electrons are just the storage mechanism. The Quid will be a measure of the human mind. It will float in the human psyche, valued according to the values of the day. One day, people will want to borrow more and the price of the Quid will go up = people will need to do more to possess it. Another day, people will feel fat, dumb and lazy and the value of the Quid will decline as troppo hippies will need a few Quid to lift a finger.
Which is no different from other money such as USD, gold, seashells, silver, cigarettes. They are all on shifting sands of human values all the time. Gold has outlasted all other currencies so far [with sidekick silver hanging in there though only a fraction of the value of gold]. But gold too is subject to fluctuation.
Just wait until my mercury transmutation scheme gets going. All I need to do is pop out a proton, stash the spare electron in the bank, sell the newly minted gold and I'll be rolling in Quid. All of a sudden, all the gold mines will be out of business.
Once I have my proton removal technique running smoothly, I'm going to use lead as my feedstock instead of mercury. Lead is really cheap and there's LOTS of it.
I can use the protons I extract from lead in my fuel cell city cars [with Fisher & Paykel electric motors in each wheel with full electronic control and position management]. People will be able to pull into a "gas station", refuel with lead, then go for a drive with lead and water as the emissions. I might have to add methanol or ethanol too to provide starting energy, reactor control and fluctuating power needs [the design is in prototype form only].
Driving will actually earn people money.
We will have a gold culture like King Midas. We will all be rich!
I will however have a huge stash of Quid, which will be in popular demand.
