Mar 22, 2019 at 15:09 | comment | added | R.M. | If you said "He squandered his car on drink", my immediate interpretation would be that it's a poetic way of saying he crashed it while drunk driving. (That is, he was "on drink" when the car was squandered, where "squandered" is being interpreted as "wasted in a reckless or foolish manner", without any monetary connotation.) | |
