dead president
Money featuring leaders
Dead president is American slang for paper currency, since U.S. bills feature portraits of former presidents.
Usually plural: I need some dead presidents to pay the rent.
The term appears frequently in hip-hop lyrics celebrating wealth or lamenting its absence.
Not all faces on U.S. currency are actually presidents—Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Hamilton never held the office.
