trousering
Slipping into pockets
Trousering is the British slang act of pocketing money, especially in a way that suggests greed or impropriety: The executives were accused of trousering millions while the company collapsed.
The image is of stuffing cash into one's trousers.
The word carries a note of disapproval—you trouser funds you perhaps shouldn't.
