that made no sense, money IS your wealth. Your getting confused with income. Wealth is money, income is, well, income. As for population, you have to check the demands of your population, click on a house, and see what they need to advance, once you provide them with the materials and/or buildings, the buidlings will start to advance, new build options will appear. Also you population will rise, as your buildings give larger occupency.
