Am I? I don’t think so. Please describe for me a situation where the simple possession of money, absent any potential for that money to flow, causes work to happen.
If you can, you’ve described nothing less than perpetual motion.
The simple possession of money by a hungry person causes that money to flow by encouraging the person to spend the money on food. That causes work to happen at the food producers. Maybe even so much more work that they're willing to hire additional hungry people to do that work.
