Scrooge endlessly drawing back (7)
I believe the answer is:
niggard
'scrooge' is the definition.
('niggard' can be a synonym of 'scrooge')
'endlessly drawing back' is the wordplay.
'endlessly' means to remove the last letter.
'drawing' becomes 'dragging' ('drag' can be a synonym of 'draw').
'back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'dragging' with its final letter removed is 'draggin'.
'draggin' written backwards gives 'NIGGARD'.
(Other definitions for niggard that I've seen before include "He's tight" , "Skinflint" , "Mean, stingy person" , "Super-saver" , "Drag gin around for the miser" .)
