Added DiffLines:

** Krusty bets ''against'' the Harlem Globetrotters, not realizing that the games are for entertainment purposes and the Globetrotters always win in amusing ways. Krusty later concludes that the game was rigged.


Added DiffLines:

* DoppelgangerSpin: Krusty does this with Homer so the mobsters won't know who to shoot. It almost works.
-->'''Homer:''' [[TooDumbToLive Ha ha, good one, Krusty!]]


Added DiffLines:

* WeakWilled: Homer specifically looks forward to the first day of every month so he can do everything the new billboards tell him to do. In this case, that's enrolling in clown college.

* MoneyDearBoy: [[invoked]] Krusty spends money like it is going out of style and has endorsed pretty much everything under the sun. Case in point, he lights a cigarette by burning a 100 dollar bill, a string of pearls, and a copy of [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} Action Comics #1]], which sold in January 2023 for ''[https://www.cgccomics.com/news/article/11231/action-comics-superman-rocket/ over three and a half million dollars.]].

* MoneyDumb: Krusty is an utter ''idiot'' when it comes to money. While he makes millions off his TV show and merchandising empire, he wastes massive sums on stupid gambling bets, [[MoneyToBurn lighting his cigarettes with high-value bills and valuable items]], [[ConspicuousConsumption condor-egg omelettes, sending roses to celebrities he thinks are dead, hiring jazz musicians to play him live elevator music, and buying a new house because his old one is dirty.]] While he assumes he can just produce more of TheMerch to stay solvent, his accountant points out that he's already franchised everything he could and nothing's selling anymore. His finances are so bad that his accountant warns him he'll be broke in a month at this rate.

* MoneyToBurn: Krusty lights a cigar with a $100 bill. Okay. Then he lights another with a copy of ''[[{{Franchise/Superman}} Action Comics #1]]'', and later another one with a pearl necklace.
