  MONEY-SPENDING EXPRESSIONS
  

  Chick Ambrass writes: "I don't know if this has ever been
  discussed before, but I've heard many expressions about how
  fast one can spend money, such as, "easy come, easy go."
  My Dad always used to say: "If you were supposed to hang
  on to it...they would put handles on it" and of course: "you
  can't take it with you". Well, today I heard a new one: "That
  went so fast....it didn't even have a chance to get a wrinkle in
  it," referring to the paper money in his wallet.
  

  Have you or your readers ever heard of that saying before?
  What other sayings are floating around pertaining to spending
  money?"
  

  [We're always quick to get sidetracked here at The E-Sylum,
  and this could be an interesting topic. Let's hear some of the
  colorful expressions our readers have come across. One that
  I've been fond of describes a tightwad thusly: "He tosses
  nickels around like they were manhole covers." -Editor]
