Replace “Noblemen have unlimited money, so the Money statistic tracks” with “Noblemen have unlimited money, and the Debt statistic tracks”.

Replace “the Nobleman who has spent the most Money” with “the Nobleman who has the greatest Debt”.

Replace “Increasing the Money of these Winners by the Money (if any) they spent on their winning bids” with “Increasing the Debt of these Winners by the Money (if any) they spent on their winning bids”.

Replace “A cost in money; winning this item will reduce your Money spent by this amount.” (if it exists in the ruleset) with “A sale price in money; winning this item will reduce your Debt by this amount.”

Replace the word “Money” with “Debt” in the rules “Secondhand Market” (if it exists) and “Money, Prestige and Power”.

“Money” currently measures two different things: the amount of currency being bid at auction and the total amount of currency a player has spent at auction. Which are similar, but also somewhat opposite - and it’s unintuitive that buying things increases your Money. Maybe we should nip that in the bud and call the running spend “Debt”.
