There are many types of plants with the nick name Money Plant but yours looks like the houseplant from the tropics and from the Epiprenum family. It is easy to grow with just average sunlight but no direct sun as the leaves can burn. Do not overwater but water as soon as the soil is dry. So usually every 8 to 10 days. It is easy to start from cuttings and needs little fertilizer. A slow release plant food like Osmocote used at half strength or about half a teaspoon for a plant your size applied just once a year is about right. Good luck and may fortune and prosperity be with you! Keep growing, Marianne Binetti
