“- as easy as pie = something very easy  right

- be on the go = be prepared  never just kicking back relaxing,  always running around, taking care of his interests.

- catch one's eye = ? a person or thing which attracts your attention, usually in a positive way.

- a fool and his money are soon parted = means the persons who aren't tacing care to there money spend it quicly  A foolish person will be taken advantage of and separated from his money.
