I think it is important to consider that most children spend a great deal of time trying to remove things from their noses. The fact that another child is putting things up his nose could mean that he will grow up to be very careful with money. Perhaps, he will become a banker! Or, maybe he will become a collector of fine art or antiques, hopefully, large enough to be displayed in a museum or gallery and no longer up his nose.
On the other hand, the child could grow up to become a diamond thief . . .
