Question in details. Please help me-

When Art returns to his father’s house, they argue about money. Specifically, they argue about why Vladek would rather risk his health and well-being than pay a handyman to fix a leak in the drain pipe. Later, as the chapter ends, Mala says, “He is more attached to things than to people.” Knowing how close to death he came at various points in his life, why do you think he values money over his health and safety?

In Chapter Five, we learn that when Vladek needed assistance his own cousin demanded payment from him.... because of this, Vladek connects survival to money.
