Art style: Modern 2D Illustration.
Two clean pedestals stand in a dark gallery-like space, one holding a solid stone house and the other a neatly stacked pile of cash beneath the label equity versus cash. Symmetrical front-facing composition creates a direct conceptual comparison. Focused overhead spotlights isolate each object and cast crisp shadows on the floor. The atmosphere is didactic, elegant, and unambiguous. Dominant palette: black, stone gray, white, muted green, silver.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image entirely in "Modern 2D Illustration" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Modern 2D Illustration". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Modern 2D Illustration" idiom, not in any other medium.
