Then they wouldn't be rich anymore

The economics of the future are somewhat different. You see, money doesn't exist in the 24th century... The acquisition of wealth is no longer the driving force of our lives. We work to better ourselves and the rest of humanity.

Also the 21st century in the Star Trek universe is rough as fuck.

At this point I’m of the “fuck it, let’s see how much Trek gets right” opinion.
