and, to atone, you've been overdoing it in the good works department ever since?

Not quite, I've actually been training a small army of 15 year olds on how they too can sell expired coupon books for profit. In exchange for my tutoring, I receive a fair percentage of their earnings.

Passive income... it's all the rage.

my training regiment

Step 1: Learning the product

Step 2: Fitness (pretending to be handicapped is strenuous stuff)

Step 3: Managing your finances (the part where they give me their money)

How Oliver Twisted of you.

I have never read Oliver Twist, but when I see/hear it referenced I think of an old friend named Todd Deatherage. We used to share shows together back in the day and commiserate about being songwriters struggling to "make it." Here's his song Oliver Twist. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I've not heard that tune in a LONG time.
