Check
-Marshall: Tony is rich? Oh, Ted, tell me he wrote you a check. Tell me he wrote you a big, fat check. A check so big it doesn't take its shirt off when it goes swimming.
-Barney: That is a big, fat check.
(From How I Met Your Mother Season 4 Episode 23)
I don' know if you've ever watched this sitcom. But from the context, can you tell me what did Marshall mean by saying the underlined sentence? Why "a bit fat check" doesn't take its shirt off when it goes swimming?
-Barney: That is a big, fat check.
