This month the theme is wealth. Let's ignore for a moment the fact that 1.7 billion people live in absolute poverty — easily done, as we do most days — and instead see what money can buy.

Wealth takes a variety of forms, many of them good in and of themselves. Taste influences the expression of wealth. Some people like to flash their cash while others reveal it only to those in the know. Some people splurge on transient fun while others invest in real estate and chattels. But whether old money or the nouveau riche, rentier or magnate, banker or entrepreneur, these people do not need dollars. Let's see the evidence of that! And if it's a display of wealth characteristic of your region of the world, all the better. I'd just rather you didn't photograph your own wealth.

I'll accept entries until 11.59 GMT on the 8th of August. Good luck! Work hard!
