"So, Is it ALL about MONEY??"

That depends upon what "it" is.

If it is about marbles, only partly. For me it is mostly about memory, or nostalgia. Which gives pleasure. Currently seeing them both listed as toys still for play makes me happy, but also seeing older ones collected (paid money for) as "vintage" assures me of their preservation, at least for a while.

They also could be won or lost in the games that we played, and some favourite marbles, which I lost in a game, I had to ransom. As with lost favourite cigarette cards. So I learned a little about gambling, risk, loss, barter and non-monetary value.
