0I'd say 01i01u00which02u02i00 refers to "money," but you can just as well say it refers to "runs out of money." I don't think it makes any difference gramatically. It just depends on what the writer had in mind. You often must wait to see what he writes next, since he may have been speaking of many things.0-
