Class
Dan Prick tugs our coat and tells us: "I'm enormously middle class, and was once dragged along to a bingo club by a former girlfriend and her mum. It's incredible the fury you can whip up in a room of old biddies winning a fuckton of money and telling them 'This is a load of old shit, really'". Like Pulp's Common People, have you ever tried to act down, or act up?

What we have here is a failure to comunicate
Money, as in coin of the realm, hasn't been in these parts long enough to be old old. It was difficult to quantify wealth in beaver pelts and wampum.
New money is derived through selling cars, bilking old ladies, and palm greased contracts.
Old money is the same everywhere, something you ancestors once possessed but has since disappeared.

Yeah. What we have here is you not knowing the meaning of a common English phrase.

I would have expected you to at least cite the OED
Wikipedia is slumming it a bit
