Summary/Abstract: I have examined the problem of the money monopoly posed by Szkudlarek, focusing onaspects related to the cultivation of values. Breaking the money monopoly may not benecessary to trigger social mobilisation. When we scrutinise money’s purpose, it fulfils twofunctions: it serves as a medium of exchange and a tool for accumulating value. Szkudlarekhas shown that there are procedures that can replace the role of the exchange regulator. In myconsiderations, I directed attention to a procedure that could help in attributing and addingvalue to creative human activities. Inspired by the Lviv School of Mathematics, a challengewith eccentric rewards may prove to be an effective way of attributing and cultivating values.
