Nick Cave did a song about that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrxePKps87k

You ain’t got no money? He’ll get you some You ain’t got no car? He’ll get you one You ain’t got no self-respect,
 you feel like an insect Well don’t you worry buddy,
 cause here he comes Through the ghetto and the barrio
 and the Bowery and the slum A shadow is cast wherever he stands Stacks of green paper in his 
red right hand
