Jim Butcher interview from 2 months ago
Dina:
I was thinking that, precisely. Money to help Harry to keep a dignified status. Not money for the sake of it.

Yeah, from the beginning Harry made it very clear that he wasn't into money or the trappings and comfort money could bring him by choice. I don't remember the exact quote, but he repeated variations versions of how if he wanted he could use his talent to gain material goods and wealth. No, he was content and comfortable in his dingy basement apartment decorated in early Salvation Army and Good Will with a book case full of worn paperbacks. Some of this attitude might change now
that he has a child to support, but it will be for hercomfort and security, not his own.

I like the idea.... But this would mean Jim was making things nicer for Harry.. Sooo
Dina:
Precisely why I said he won't keep the diamonds. I suppose he will get a home for his daughter and him, but the rest, he will lose it somehow.

Well going against what I said in my previous post, Harry may get some nice things because Jim knows it's going to get much worse later on lol. I actually remember Jim saying something like some of what Harry experiences are based on what Jim has experienced and that because he has more money, so does Harry.
I don't remember exactly how he put it, but that's what came across. He also said something I think inferred that he may lose the money some how. He jokes a lot about the cost of his son's college tuition. Maybe Maggie's private supernatural school she's going to attend is very very expensive.
