Through

Guys,

What do you think "through" means in the sentence below?
Does it mean "spend"?


Just because Microsoft has more money to through at a problem doesn't mean its not going to have a problem.

'Through' is not correct here. The word should be 'throw '. If you throw money at a problem, it means that you try to solve it by spending a lot of money rather rashly.
