    only trigger if and only if you owe a debt on something to someone within your visual range.

    It would seem you didn’t understand my message.

    No; you could not exploit it in this way. If you do not intend to pay a person then you do not need the money and have no debt you are seeking to pay. The generated cash would simply vanish from your pocket.

    That cash is leaving your pocket one way or another; either by willing to pay somebody and actually doing it or it vanishing.

      Nothing about your original message implies the intent of the power holder, nor does the original prompt imply the intent of the power holder. Someone can both have a debt owed by them to someone in their immediate vicinity and also have no intention of paying that debt. If I owe a friend $100, does my power require me to state or intend on paying that debt? Or is the requirement fulfilled because I have an immediate debt to pay and I’m fishing in my pocket for “change”? All of the listed powers are either easily exploitable or can be rules-lawyered to mediocrity.
