Dimes ... ?

ITA,
Yup.The original term to "spare a dime" dates back to the depression. Add inflation and you've your 50 bucks in the noughties. Greedy little beggars weren't they!

Can't say today's homeless requesters of financial assistance have ever asked me for fifty. Normally ask if i can spare a coupla bucks for a coffee or a train / bus ticket.

I think it is something like make passes & assists with ease... as easy as droppin' dimes.
