M1 is equal to the sum of currency held by individuals and businesses plus traveler's checks plus checking deposits owned by individuals and businesses.

Not all of M2 is money because not all of M2 are a means of payment. In other words, some parts of M2, such as time deposits, cannot be used directly to make a purchase.
