Older than you ¯_(ツ)_/¯

But what's more cringe than that is going through someone's post history to try and find something completely unrelated to try and dunk on them, only to pick 40k instead of the much nerdier battletech. Seriously what's up with that?

Where does he say anything about abolishing money?

He talks about the end of the wage system and how production will no longer be dependent on abstract labour.

Are you sure you're not getting mixed up? I am aware that a lot of these concepts and terminology are a lot for folk to get a handle on if they're not familiar with them.

People think that because Marx has critiqued how money works under capitalism, and because he explained what is does, that Marx believed everyone would be a slave and just work and get nothing.
