Secret supply of money, say (5)

I believe the answer is:

cache

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

'secret supply' is the definition.
'cache' can be an answer for 'supply' (thesaurus). I am not certain of the 'secret' bit.

'money say' is the wordplay.
'money' becomes 'cash' (I've seen this before).
'say' shows a homophone (sound like).
'cash' sounds like 'CACHE'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cache that I've seen before include "Stockpile" , "Hiding-place for treasure etc" , "memory" , "Hidden storage space" , "Secret source" .)
