(circus) Clowns don't have much money to spend....
 
Like any good joke or funny expession, "spending like a drunken sailor" (or variations), has a strong element of truth to it.  I shouldn't have to spell it out to this crowd.
 
Unfortunately, some would rather be PC than tell jokes or stories that actually work or are funny.  Too bad.
