The top part looks like a dollar sign and if we separate the radical at the bottom, the middle part looks like a wallet and the bottom part is a person radical. So therefore it is like a person opening their wallet to SPEND money!

The character looks like a grill for a barbecue, you cook the steak at the top and the legs are at the bottom. To have a good barbecue you need to put a lot of effort cooking. In terms of pronunciation, the character sounds similar to fee, reminding me that I need to spend money to pay my debt.

when you don’t remember how to write ‘spend’, try to remember what the word ‘expensive’ looks like. Once you remember take the top part and add the complicated part there because spending is complicated.
