But what are you going to eat once you run out of rich people?

And what are you going to pay him with?

if money is not existent at this point, i will, as mentioned in my original comment, exchange it for something else, be it other goods, or my services as a mechanic, electrician, metal worker, or IT-support (yes i know, kind of an outlier)

If you think a complex, modern society can be run on barter trade, I have some bad news for you.

No complex society has ever been run without money. While that's no proof, that is impossible, I don't care to be part of this particular social experiment.
