For much of the English speaking world the word 'pocket' in connection
with money is synonymous with theft, or at least nefarious dealings. In
this case the reverse is clearly the case. I'd like to suggest that you
change the word 'pocket' to 'granted' in the headline, so as to avoid a
totally unjustified slur on the characters of James and Karin Purser, who
would appear to be paragons of virtue.

generally in Australia, the use of the word 'pocket' in relation to money is a good thing. Unless of course, you're 'Out of pocket' :-)The Linux pod people pocket $1500 (PCWorld)
