Well if you're living without any expenses, like eating or good living environments anyway why do you need money?

They are if you aren't planning to live much more than a century, but for an immortal, it would be a full time job to keep the money going.

And a job that would be constantly (to a perspective of an immortal) changing, banks are very different than they were before, tax law has changed drastically, inheritance laws have drastically changed, it would be a serious headache to keep track.

Which is good when that commodity doesn't collapse in value, which over a long enough time-scale many of them would. And provided you have the ability to liquidate those items without questions being asked.
