Ay! So much to learn!
What is the slang that YOU use for money (dinero) in your country?
Here is what I found for the Cuban dialect: moneda, baro, chavito, divisa, fula, dolars, peso, plata, melon, moni, guanikiki, lana, pasta, yira.

Yeah....for beer we just say:
Cervesa, una Fria o lo llamamos por el nombre. jaja
or to hint that we want a beer we might say something like:
"Estoy Seco!" jajaDime cosas dulces para que cuando te las tengas que tragar, no te sepan tan amargas!!! -
@Damarys: for dinero the most common word in Mexico is 'lana', but you can also hear 'baros', 'pasta', 'chuchos', 'plata'... they're the ones I remember now
maybe Zahra will know some others
