Roger's Money

I liked hanging around my older siblings, specifically Jean, Roger, or Mike ("Mickey" as he was called until he went off to college; then he was known as "Mike" though I am not certain of the timing or reason for the transition). Anyways, one never knew what adventures might crop up whilst hanging around one of them, or possibly a treat of candy or something. I was following Roger around the house one day like a puppy dog. He, for some reason, remarked that he didn't have any money. Perhaps I asked him for something, I don't recall. Knowing that he was gainfully employed back then, I inquired as to what he did with the money he made. He said he threw it away. Not comprehending the euphemism, I fished through all the wastebaskets in house looking for some financial windfall courtesy of Roger.
