But the way that he went and asked the dead kid where "it" was, that was very specific. The same is obviously the case for this. Specific. He obviously needs it for something particular, but mysterious.

I say "obviously"... But I also reckon it could just as easily be a code just as mentioned above :-)
Well one theory is did his research and KNEW the young boy more than likely had money in his room, i.e. to purchase drugs with or money earned from dealing.

But it was very specific I agree, but perhaps he could 'sense' the spirit had money - just as he used Naomi's body to find out what happened to her. But that particular flashback did not happen in Eggtown so any direct relevance to money is not 'necessarily' a given. Though it may be relative nonetheless

Perhaps he [for whatever reason] does not want to ask for anymore than he needs. In other words, he is not a greedy man; well not TOO greedy.
