Create a +1 Animation when button is clicked

I would recommend using CSS animation like below. You can read more about keyframe animation here and here

var money = 0;
var currentMoney = document.getElementById("currentMoney");

function addOne() {
  money++;
  currentMoney.innerHTML = money;

  var moneyAnimation = document.createElement("p");
  moneyAnimation.innerHTML = "+1";
  document.getElementById("moneyAnimation").appendChild(moneyAnimation);
  moneyAnimation.classList.add("moneyAnimation"); // Add the class that animates
}
* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

#moneyAnimation {
  height: 500px;
  border: 1px solid;
  width: 200px;
  float: right;
  position: relative; /* Added */
}

@keyframes moneyAnimation {
  0% {
    opacity: 1;
    top: 0;
  }
  100% {
    opacity: 0;
    top: -50px;
  }
}

.moneyAnimation {
  animation: moneyAnimation 1s forwards;
  position: absolute;
}
<button onclick="addOne();">+1$</button>
<p>Money: <b id="currentMoney">0</b>$</p>
<div id="moneyAnimation"></div>
