ME (stlcole):
I like the 'reversal-of-fortune' idea. It seems reasonable that 
Harry, who has be blase about his forture, might still need to learn 
that money cannot buy somethings. I don't think that Harry will be 
tempted by greed per se, but he still might need to develop a more 
adult-like understanding of money. Even if this proves to be 
thematically relavent to book 6, I would still imagine that it is 
not central to the story.

Repeating .. I liked your idea
