Hey Hernán!
che está buenísimo! sorry... I'm on it now and actually seems very very
promising. I've created a measure of some money by squared metter of a
custom material. This is what I needed. Awsome
thanks !
Sebastian Sastre
PS: can you please send me the Arithmetic with Measurements on
Dynamically-Typed Object-Oriented Languages pdf? also any other related
paper/s?

It's a particularly tricky problem since the relative values change
frequently, rapidly and chaotically; honestly I would prefer to claim
that money is not really a Unit in any meaningful way. Units are
really defined values with defined relationships to other derived and
founding units. Currency is a medium of exchange with variable ratios.
