saved

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'chester's retired' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'put away some cash' is the wordplay.
'put away' becomes 'save' (I've seen this in another clue).
'some cash' becomes 'd' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'save'+'d'='SAVED'

'having' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for saved that I've seen before include "Redeemed or rescued" , "Delivered" , "Conserved" , "what Jesus did" , "Kept for later" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
