What if you want a car that costs 21000£? They're going to have to come up with small paper or metal chits to represent the transfer of wealth greater than the maximum cap.
Maybe something official-looking with the king's face on it or something. They could preprint these promissory notes and label them in common denominations so that no matter the value you are trying to represent, there will be a combination of paper slips and metal wafers that total to the correct amount...
When people say "own nothing and be happy," I think of my mother who would say "eat it and be happy" when she made something I didn't like. I look at it as a "polite" version of "tough shit."

You can’t buy cars. You’re only allowed to rent it or lease.
Same with flats and houses.
One of the reasons for the limit: Solves the prosit ownership.
You will own nothing and be happy …
… and easily banned for wrongtweet or wrongthink.
