I think you're very close to being right...

But I think "Fuck you money" implies, "I honestly don't have to worry about money, ever again."

Now, we all have different definitions for that, but the kind of thing I was talking about is definitely not "Fuck you money," to me.

I think if I had "Fuck you money," my best friends and close family would all have their medical debts paid off. I think my parents and in-laws would have their mortgages paid off.

That is what they call "fuck me money". As in, fuck me I'll just pay it.
