Hello all users!

Does the sentence "All the money that I earn goes on repairing the damage" mean "All the money that I earn is spent / used on repairing the damage"?

Maybe the sentence should read: "All the money that I earn goes towards repairing the damage".

Thank you.
 
All those alternatives are correct and mean the same.
 
This American would not say "goes on."
It goes to, it goes toward, it goes towards -- all okay.
