Money and status mean such different things depending on who you're talking to, many versions of which are not harmful to others. Power and influence over others are both more zero sum

Ehh i hate seeing 30 iterations of the same concept on my timeline, try not to contribute to the phenom. Though I disagree with throwing status into the 0sum bucket too. "i want to positively differentiate myself/gain respect among group" is status seeky, but not really 0sum
