Strands #155

"Rolling in it"

Hello Strands fans! It doesn't take a genius to know that "rolling in it" has to do with money. However, there is always the possibility that the game setters at Strands could bluff and make a game about tumbling and rolling pins.

Thankfully, when I spotted the word WEALTHY on the right side, I quickly realized that was not the case. When I saw MONEYED immediately below, I could confirm that this was a term specifically for the wealthy.

I could not find the word "loaded" (perhaps too British a term), but there was an AFFLUENT tucked away in the upper right corner, followed diagonally by an OPPULENT. This cleared the way nicely for Spangram: THATSRICH crossed the board from left to right.

Only one word remained. It was only to decipher the anagram of ROUSEPOSRP, which was not too onerous. It was, of course, PROSPEROUS.
