Change seeker
Answer:
BEGGAR
Hint:
One who asks for coins on the street might fit this role perfectly.
Explanation:
"Change seeker" plays on the double meaning of "change." While it could imply someone looking for transformation, here it hints at a person asking for spare coins—literally seeking change as money. "Beggar" fits perfectly since beggars often request small amounts of change from passersby. The clue cleverly misdirects with the idea of change as alteration before landing on the financial sense.
