[The Pokegear snaps on, and Dick, in a nice waiter's shirt, slumps down against a wall and sighs.]

So this is, uh, ridiculously embarrassing.

[His hair's slicked back, too, and he's loosening a little bow tie with his other hand. Tugging at it with a little more force than strictly necessary.]

Exactly, um. Does anyone have any tips for how to... like, not go broke? How do people keep track of money? How do you not run out?

I plead lack of maturity, lack of understanding of the value of a... whatever the unit of currency is here, I don't even know.

And yeah, okay, if you all want a good laugh at my expense, my foster father is a billionaire, both through inheritance and being the CEO of a worldwide corporation. Go ahead, I've heard all the rich kid jokes and I don't really care, I'd just be grateful, in return, for a little--

[There's a voice yelling in the distance, something about not being paid to take breaks; Dick jumps up and shuts off the feed immediately. He does have a work ethic, okay, he was a circus performer until he was nine, but that money was all put in the bank.]

Problem is, I think they do just that. Whenever I bump into those kids on the routes, they're usually roughing it out on their own. You've got a few schools scattered in the towns, but otherwise it seems like they expect you to wing it.

[Not that it's hard in theory, long as you don't end up with a monster that's too violent for its own good. Sometimes that happens.]

Which just isn't right. Maybe it's my inner mathlete talking, but school's important, too. What kind of practical knowledge do you really have here?
