To speculate about how much money someone has or earns
I swear he can’t be getting more than £200/£250 a gig? He earns more than you think! Why do you have to pocket watch?
A verb. An action in which an individual is monitoring or speculating an aspect of another person’s life. Usually done in jealousy or tied to some form of inferiority or self-consciousness. This can refer to many things such as hoes (men or women), success or mostly in regards to financial status. Made popular by the illustrious rap group, the Migos; pocket watching was originally used to refer to an envious or covetous individual is worried about funds which are not their own and they did not put the work in to receive said benefits. They are solely empty husks of people who are worried about another person’s shit and are as the migos would say “bitch niggas”.
These individuals be pocket watching, minding another’s wallet. They are worried about what I have yet does not have shit if they own. They did in fact not make it out of the mud.
