Well my wife just asked me what is a sawbuck. so I gave her the rundown on northeast slang for money.
buck $1.00
duce $2.00
fin $5.00
sawbuck.$10.00
doublesawbuck.$20.00
half a yard. $50.00
a yard $100.00 also Cnote {century=100}
then we get to grand.$1000.00 or G as in give me a G for it! or a couple of g's. $2000.00
couple of grand. $2000.00 ect. ect.
After that I never get to use that language. not that rich.lol

you can also say Spot. like give me a 10spot,$10.00 three spot.$3.00 or any thing you want. spot me a 20.00 untill i get paid!!

That raps it up

Years ago, before ATMs, I was on a trip and ran out of checks. I called home and asked the wife to send me a few hundred bucks for 'beer, toiletries and stuff'.

The next day I received a wire for $50 with a note saying 'here's some money for beer and toiletries...your "stuff" is at home!!'

Always had spare checks with me after that!

[travis_cornell]

Lmao Tweeter!!!! I bet I know what "stuff" she thought you were wanting to buy. This it what comes from getting caught watching channel 596 too much. Laffing.

I aways refer to a $100 as an ACE...

[Funggulli]

Heheh
Very observant Mr G and since it's Xmas, didn't really want to explain it in the where your nick came from thread. In the movie My Blue Heaven, Steve Martin or Vinnie had a dog named Funggulli. Merry Xmas

[Alaccountant]

I think you guys missed the gool, also, there were usually two more italian words that followed, which translated to three american words. hint: where was it to be done?

I'm from Connectucut, our grammar school and highschool football games were fun, but, the fights after the game were more fun. LOL (LOL: english to italian translation= Laughing Out Loud.

Al (all the girls knew me as Alphonse DeCappo, but, that's not my real name, but, for sure, my real name is not 2gapa.)

[Funggulli]

Yo Al, it's in there. We just spell it different here. Gotta send you my Italian Dictionary, Philly Edition. By the way Funggulli is only my middle name.
