Dude should already have far more than enough savings for a hermit life in the countryside. With the bounties from international criminals, how could he not have? It's such a tired, beaten to death joke from the Japanese authors that heroes must always stay piss-poor, no matter what they do or achieve. When Alta was fighting the gang member with a toy sword, Alta also noted that the property damage caused by the criminal would be deduced from his wages. Really now? It must suck to be a guard or a cop in Japan if that's how the place works.
