Ok, I searched for this and did not see anything, so fogive me if it
has already been done. But I have this awful horrible feelings that
Ron Weasley and perhaps the twins are going to be tempted to the Dark
Side or betrayal for money. I know I know, Ron would never do that.
But JK definitely upped the significance of the Weasley's poverty GoF
just when she has set the stage for "now is the time to see who will
choose what". And also ron talks about how he believes the twins
would do almost anything for money (though this may be alleviated by
Harry's gift). But the amount of comments by Ron along the line
of "Why is everything I own rubbish", are greatly increased. Along
with his bitterness at Harry's relative wealth (something we had not
seen in any of the other books). I think that without a doubt
something is being set up here. I mean we cannot just think that the
Trio are going to go through these dark years ahead of them with
absoulutely no threat to their loyalty and frienship with each
other. And Ron's attitude towards money in GoF, makes me nervous!
