I prob used a few terms, incorrectly

I think they used the term, Money flow. It's the flow of money that allows the wealth to be created (up and down flow). Even in say the investment example, if money can't be moved no money can be made. For sure going to take some work either way...

Correct, 1 cent each doing nothing vs. 2 cents profit 'each' by moving money.
