I was reading about Jedi mind tricks and am curious to know what happens to the mind of the trickeesubject afterward. On WookiepediaWookieepedia it says:

Should the trick succeed, he or she then agreed to whatever was being said to them without being able to think for themselves. Moments later, they would feel puzzled about their new opinion, but usually didn't feel like changing it back.

So if a Jedi was to, say, trick someone into giving the Jedi money (or whatever), would the person later just think to himself, "I gave that Jedi 10 grand but whatever"? Of course we're ignoring the fact that Jedi shouldn't use these things for personal gain (and that they don't use USD).
