: "An ignoramous and his lucre are readily disjoined". What does that mean please?

It is a play on words and means--"A fool and his money are easily ( seperated ) parted".

A "fool" is a person who is always joking and doing stupid things.

And if a fool does not look after his money and watch it then someone may take it while the fool is joking around.
