MONEY MAN = NAM YENOM = Mummy?

This is another t-shirt from AKIPA. I have to say
this is one of the most surreal I've ever
encountered. First off 'Money Man' is also a mummy
(Mummy Man)? This is a either a bad mistranslation or
a stunning play on words (well, it is for a knockoff
t-shirt designer at least). I don't know what to make
of the bright red slashes around his mouth -
bloodstains? But more bizarre perhaps than the
money/mummy synthesis is the backwards spelling of
his name across his chest. This would read correctly
in your rearview mirror, just like 'ECNALUBMA' for
AMBULANCE. Soooo... he spends a a lot of time running
in traffic?
So many unsettling questions. Why is he a mummy? Why are his hands green under the bandages? Do the bandages hold in his money, or is he made of money? Why is he wearing a trucker hat? My head hurts...
