Crossword Genius

Asked for money? Crazy (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

touched

This clue is a double definition.

'asked for money?' is the first definition.
(touch can mean to beg or ask for money)

'crazy' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for touched that I've seen before include "Made to feel sympathy - or slightly mad?" , "Felt" , "Contacted; slightly mad" , "Moved sympathetically - mad!" , "a bit mad" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
