Is there anyone who listens to Shawn talk about money use bucks rather than dollars? I can't tale this so I change the channel. Smiley Frustrated

Before you throw stones, you may want to check the spelling/use of your thread title, just trying to be helpful .....

Bucks is a synonym for dollars.

And also: PRONUNCIATION is the way in which a word or name is pronounced

 

And if she is talking about $10, isn't that a sawbuck?  At least that's what I thought.

I don't like it when she says Bucks either.  It sounds too "flip" or something.  Frankly, I am tired of her and just don't enjoy watching her.  I always want to push her glasses up or move her hair out of her face.  Something about her just bugs me, so I don't watch her.  I am sure she is a lovely person, but she is definitely not one of my favorite hosts.

That is just one of the obnoxious things Shawn does and says.
