Sometimes I wonder why people don't think {-meH} when I think
{-meH}. I think your idea is far better conveyed as:
Huch vIlo'meH reH jIyep.
Your carefulness has a PURPOSE, right? It is not just a matter
of time stamping carefulness relative to the event of using
money. The relationship is one of purpose. That is what {-meH}
is for.
