'I hardly expected the federal tapering affect my allowance.'

"My assets consist of a piggy bank, 2 teeth for the tooth fairy, and whatever change I find in the living room sofa."

'I got that, Ms. Rafferty... now can we get on to student loans?'

Investments: Still Open to New Investors - 'A fool & his money fund.'

"Would you like a glass too? They're five bucks."

"Uh, Dad, I appreciate the 'walkin' around money,' but I need 'walkin' around New York City money.'"

'He's showing an interest in banking and finance.'
