Since then, we find it interesting, during casual conversations when the topic of money concerns suddenly come up.
Interested if others are aware of this term and its use. Examples that are humorous that could be shared might be interesting.

Is that like at church when you make a tithe commitment. And they keep nickel and dining you weekly during service.
