Money is like a child—rarely unaccompanied. when it disappears, look to those who were supposed to be keeping an eye on it while you were at the grocery store. you might also look for someone who has a lot of extra children sitting around, with long, suspicious explanations for how they got there.

More From Daniel Handler

To walk in money through the night crowd, protected by money, lulled by money, dulled by money, the crowd itself a money, the breath money, no least single object anywhere that is not money. money, money everywhere and still not enough! and then no money, or a little money, or less money, or more money but money always money. and if you have money, or you don't have money, it is the money that counts, and money makes money, but what makes money make money?
