| | English translation:keep on, carry on | Explanation:
here 'Lage' sounds like L in the word 'Love' or 'Lovely' ; or
like 'La' as in the word of 'Lage' in the sentence 'Lage raho munnabhai!' meaning keepon; go on; carryon (doing something ie a task).
I assume they are implying or saying: 'keep on wasting money'.
as if the person has a habit.
laage sounds like 'La' as in 'Las Vegas' or 'Laugh'.
here laage means to feel or think or assume

2 hrs confidence: | Lage, Lagvu, Lagtu, Lago Seem, Appear, Look, Feel, etc.
Explanation:
Varients of "Lage" are "Lagvu", "Lagtu", "Lago", etc, all of which essentially mean as Seem, Appear, Look, Feel, etc.
e.g.
1) "Tamne Paisa Bahu Gamta Hoy Tevu Lage Chhe" = You seem like much liking money
2) "Tamne Paisa Bachavvani Ichchha Hoy Tevu Lagtu Nathi" = You don't seem like having desire to save money
3) "Tame Paisa Nakama Kharchata Lago Chho" = You seem like expensing money on useless things
4) "Tame Prem Ma Padya Hoy Tevu Lage Chhe" = You seem like having fallen in love
5) "Tu Mandi Hoy Tevi Lage Chhe" = You look like ill.
6) "Mane Taras Lagi Chhe" = I feel thrusty.
7) "Tu Saras Lagti Nathi" = You don't appear any good.
Pl. feel free to ask for any clarifications.

examples involving word 'SARU' usages:
1) 'Tu Saru Kam Kare Chhe' = You're doing a good job.
2) 'Tu Saras Vato Kare Chhe' = You talk nice.
etc, etc.
Hope this clarifies everything including for rest of above differently given examples. Let me know if any doubt still persists.

Asker: just one thing, "tu saras lagti nathi" from my understanding (which isn't much) saru means 'good' obviously saras means good aswell but i was wondering how would i know when speaking when to use saru or saras?
