I find so many aspects of monkey bucketedness fascinating, but one element that catches my interest early on is the creative process that must have been involved.
Why a MONKEY, in this instance? Is a monkey carrying a bucket more endearing than, say, a hippopotamus? Is it important to have selected a creature that is vaguely humanoid? Would a Great Dane do? Shaving a finer line, why a monkey rather than an orangutan or gorilla?
Were other creatures considered and discarded? And, is there a bestiary of bucket-carrying rejects somewhere?

Maybe it was supposed to be "Money Bucket" but someone couldn't read someone else's handwriting.
