Comments of chapter undefined of I Am Tired Of Being A Hero

Question : If ravi can manipulate atoms, why not turn some things into some cash for emergencies when needed, you know too get asher stuff. I know he's a police officer but does that aspect really matter to him? He is just an officer now because of a law. Unless the things he changes doesn't remain that way for long, but what i've read so far it doesn't seem like that. Is it because he was a sentinel and has certain things he won't do?
