É manda buscar, com c.
Em inglês parece não haver um término irreverente padrão, cada um constrói o seu ad hoc, basta ver o que aparece na Internet.

| Could manda buscar perhaps be translated as "money talks"? Money doesn't buy happiness but money talks |

It is a typo. This is a very popular Brazilian proverb.
Money does not bring happiness but, when properly used, it sends for it.

Note from asker:
| Thanks but would I be right in thinking that the sentence seems incomplete, manda buscar o que? What does "it" in your suggestion refer to? |
