Considering Corazón's proficiency with the rapier, I tend to think that before he went out to the high seas, back when he was still Percival, he was trained under a tutor. The best one money can buy, in fact.

And from what we can determine from Lord Milquetoast's nonchalance at giving away all the money on him, is that money is the last thing the Milquetoasts worry about.

Yes. Safe to say that the Milquetoasts are indeed, loaded.

And from what we can gleam from Corazón's description of The Joyful Damnation, and that is it's made with "fine craftmanship" by his own words, we may easily assume that he used his pocket money to have it built by the best shipbuilder money can buy.

Yes, I'm taking it as granted that Percival's pocket money is what we commoners would call rich. Remember Lord Arlo Mayweather? All the money that man has is Percival's allowance, and could probably buy his estate with his pocket money.

Actually, ever wondered why Corazón doesn't quite know the exchange rates of selling goods? That's because he didn't need to when buying things. Maybe to him, back then, he was a tiny bit like Dob in that he didn't really thought about money that much, and it wasn't until he went out to be a pirate that he learned of its value. Learning from Curly Joe and the others.

So by the start of The Spicy Rat Caper, he knows the importance of money, but doesn't know its exchange rate. And now he doesn't like it when people *cough cough* Dob! *cough cough* treats gold so unstintingly.
