Even for those outside the system of which includes the water leakage from the small rings, or the small percentage of outward flows from the filler caps in the large countries, the underground economy, offshore accounts, debt forgiveness and dfaults, etc. The escaping water droplets have significant because water forms a minicus and droplets often do not move, attaching on the rings or on the inside surface of the beach ball.

Condensation appears in side a beach ball which is a method of retrieval while most of the water is created signifying the question you had regarding what is money and what does it represent. Too much condensation and we end up with outside flows, which needs to be put back into the system and is now unaccounted for. Those flows also move the beach ball and cause it wobbling.

Think of wars, drug traffic, etc. These upset the system, but are also part of the chaos and the external system, when in motion and in play they do not effect much, only a lesson to the system of past problems. When the mom puts the beach ball away they move to the bottom of the inside of the beach ball and actually tend to stabilize the ball when not in motion, keeping it from rolling.

To the extent that the beach ball is an enclosed encapsulated system which is similar to this planet Earth, beach balls also have openings and this allows for further interaction from other worlds, ah the future, space colonies, asteroid mining, etc. The enclosed beachball also signifies the linear time trap of humans presently and the fact that some day we will find that hole and explore the outside realm.

For now we are are stuck inside the ball and effected by the flow. The fill up hole in beachballs leak where the present and the future meet between gravity, air and space, it is the door to the all knowledge and our future.

In this allegory the children will grow up and not be as interested in the beach ball and it will remain as it was and the family pet, the dog will eventually die, the mom will sell the beach ball at a garage sale, or throw it out. Or it might be saved for the next set of kids or grand kids and thus the human race repeats the past again and again, but are we learning anything? All of which signifies the uncertainties, possibilities, vulnerabilities and our future abilities to change the destiny of the future of humankind.

Although this scenario maybe too abstract for most people it is simplistic as is the universe, quantum mechanics, gravity, time, light, grand unification and the closet is dark where the beach ball is packed away and the air slowly deflates or it is pumped up by its new owner from the garage sale purchase or the happy parents who say, "Look the beach ball we use to play with" and then "Hey, kids here is a beach ball. We must also be careful not to pop the beach ball or not take the beach ball allegory seriously, because as abstract a thought as this is. Life is not a beach without the beach ball.

You see the secret to world monetary flows is not so difficult to understand, Plato was correct it is much easier to learn by allegory and what could be simplier than a beachball?
