And why won't Ron, Luna, Neville, Hermoine, and Ginny get any? And 
it's only the ones that escaped from Azkaban, plus what was the 
amount on Sirius head? and where would that money go? The Death 
Eaters will all say that Sirius was there with the MoM employees 
maybe even to the point of losing someone a job, Kingsley? But maybe 
just maybe, they divide the money making Ron a little less unhappy 
then he is already being poor. but in my opinion, ron is not really 
that unhappy, he's just a little green eyed, and he'll get over that 
because he doesn't want to be Percy, Percy never had a problem 
telling fred and george off, but ron has something people have yet 
to see. Lori
