Monopoly money
Fake pastel currency
Monopoly money is the colorful paper currency used in the board game Monopoly.
Because it has no real value, the phrase describes any currency or payment that seems worthless or fake: They're paying us in Monopoly money at this point.
It often dismisses inflated or devalued currency, or expresses that money feels unreal in a transaction.
