Well..Its not a metaphor because there is no hidden, implicit or implied hidden comparison between two unrelated things.
Its not a hyperbole because there is no over exaggerated statement.
Its not a euphemism because there is no indirect words or expressions being substituted in place of a harsh or unpleasant.
Its not a oxymoron because there is nothing that contradicts itself.
It is a alliteration because the words used have the same sounds. Slowly, Hurry and Money.
