Brought up money for speaker? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bred

'brought up' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'money for speaker?' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'bread' (bread is slang for money).
'for speaker?' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue (I've seen 'for speaker' mean this).
'bread' is a homophone of 'BRED'.

(Other definitions for bred that I've seen before include "did produce issue" , "Very (music)" , "Produced offspring" , "Brought up (to behave in particular way)" , "Procreated" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
