Take the tour ×  Google definition defines fund as  A sum of
money saved or made available for a particular purpose.
However, while I was looking up the definition of a trust fund,
Google definition states it is,   So is a fund merely a sum of
money, or can also be assets/properties?  share|improve this
question I think this is General Reference. OED 4 sing. A stock
or sum of money, esp. one set apart for a particular purpose.
Just because funds are usually "money-based", and that's the
only definition given by Google, doesn't make this a useful
question. At dictionary.com there's supply; stock: a fund of
knowledge; a fund of jewels. –  FumbleFingers Dec 20 '12 at
