Well, if he was an apprentice carpenter working for his stepfather,
how can you prove any money was involved.  Once his ministry started,
he did not use money at all, except for what his unfaithful apostle
carried around in a bag.  Jesus Christ did not need that money, but he
did not stop Judas from carrying it around.

=========

So you are claiming that he was a freeloader, a scrounger, a bludger, a 
welfare leech and presumably didn't pay his restaurant bills either.  Great 
role model ....

BTW, because something is not explicitly mentioned in scripture does not 
mean it never happened.  Being human, I am pretty sure that Jesus would 
occasionally have had a widdle or squatted down to have a crap.  Heck, he 
probably farted, too.
