Prepares money (7)
I believe the answer is:
readies
I believe this is a double definition.
'prepares' is the first definition.
('ready' can be a synonym of 'prepare')
'money' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for readies that I've seen before include "Bank notes" , "Cash -- a desire (anag)" , "money" , "The - - : cash (sl.)" .)
