I agree that what you described is the opposite of what I described, but I don't think what you described is in any way representative of Libertarianism. Money is thought to be a good motivator because it's inherent and other people's desire will counterbalance and propel everyone forward.
What you're describing sounds more like sound bites from the 1%\99% movement than any political or economic philosophy I've heard or read.
