Anthony Rockwall from 'Mammon and the Archer' thinks that money can buy everything. Anthony's son, Richard, doesn't think that money is everything, and Anthony is trying to convince Richard otherwise. Some of the things Anthony thinks he can buy are Love, Time, and Happiness.
In 'Mammon and the Archer', Richard talks to his father about a girl at School he likes, and Anthony tells Richard to buy time with her. He tells Richard that Money can buy time, but Richard still thinks otherwise. Later on, when Richard gets to see Miss Lantry, the girl he likes, for the last time before she goes to Europe, while they are in a cab going to the cinemas, Anthony pays some people to make traffic so that his son and the girl like each other. While Richard picks up a ring he dropped outside accidentally, the cars come in and make traffic. While they make traffic, Miss Lantry and Richard get to talk to each other.
Later on, at about 11:00 PM, Ellen, who is Anthony's sister, tells Anthony that Richard is getting Married. Next day, a woman named Kelly comes over and asks for the money he spent to make the traffic. After she gets the money, she goes to leave, but before she leaves, Anthony asks if she saw a naked boy carrying arrows. He was, of course referencing Cupid.
Overall, I think that Money can't get everything, and bad things can happen to people who love money to much. I also like Richard more than Anthony, because he is not like his Dad
