And to defend my claim that money is intangible while it is potentially tied to tangibility: if money is not spent, that is, tied to tangible goods, it is unnecessary (with certain exceptions that do not violate the rule).

The inhereted money was earned while the original person was alive. It wasn't earned by the original person after death. Only copyright allows the dead person to earn money...
