Do with what? That extra dollar in his pocket.
Spend it, of course, if he leaves it there, likely on
something useless or unnecessary. He just can't
keep it that dollar in his pocket. There is a place,
and a safe one, where he can keep it and add to it,
where it will grow and grow until it is big enough to
meet that emergency call for cash that is coming
