March 25, 2010 at 7:11 AMThe second part of the sentence:
总担心别人会打他钱的主意。
"打钱"不是"stealing", 没有"打钱"这个说法。"打劫"有"stealing"的意思。
这里用的是"打...主意"。
打主意：想办法获得。
打（他钱的）主意：盯上了他的钱，想把他的钱拿走。

March 26, 2010 at 2:12 AM"你保重吧，照顾妈妈。" Your sentence is correct.
But it's more natural to say,
你要保重，还要好好照顾妈妈。
Nǐ yào bǎozhòng, hái yào hǎohāo zhàogu māma.
or 你要好好照顾自己和你的妈妈。
Nǐ yào hǎohāo zhàogu zìjǐ hé nǐ de māma.
Please take care of yourself and your mother.
