Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature | | Russian term or phrase: С ценными вещами и деньгами будь на «вы». | Good afternoon/evening,
I would be very grateful for your help with the above sentence. It is part of an individual's own homespun maxim. I want to do it justice, but have been unsuccessful so far. Please find below the saying in its entirety. Unfortunately, I cannot offer any further context as it came in a list of about 50 or so expressions coined by the main character of the story I have just translated.
С ценными вещами и деньгами будь на «вы». Они оказались у тебя в руках потому, что кто-то был с ними на «ты».
Thank you!
