Digressing a little:

Money is a matter of functions four,
a medium, a measure, a standard, a store.

"standard" refers to "standard of deferred payment" - that the value of 
money is supposed to be stable over time, to facilitate transactions 
that extend over time.  This function of money has become politically 
incorrect.
