The error message is quite informative, I think.

You multiply two variables of unit "Money" and so you get a variable of unit "Money"squared, whatever that may be. You see the €² in your screenshot?

Then you try to add simple "Money" to that "Monay²" - this has to fail.

Think of meter.

Can you add 2 m² + 3 m ? Sure not - you can not add an area and a length. What should the outcome be?

The same applies to € + €² - they are not compatible and Prime correctly refuses to add them.

So, it's true.  Money really is the square root of all €vil?
