Talk:Brother, Can You Spare an Ed?/@comment-5525892-20150503220821

For those of you who think Sarah's decision to entrust Ed with her money was foolish, I have this to say: keep in mind that Ed fears Sarah's wrath more than anything else, something that Sarah is all too aware of, so it's entirely possible that she figured his fear of her would keep him from doing something lethally stupid like spending her money on jawbreakers. And initially, it does: when Eddy tries to tempt him, Ed's fear of Sarah actually keeps his head on straight at first, but Eddy kept hammering at him, and even then, it still took a lot of hammering. If Eddy had not interfered, Ed would have bought the fudge without even thinking about buying jawbreakers.
