Joffrey wasn't motivated to help Bran, he was motivated to do something his father would approve of. For access to money and the dagger, well Robert left crap everywhere, a dagger could easily go missing from his collection, and Joffrey is the son of a king, sure it's not that hard to get a few gold coins to the first evil looking guy he see's. Remember he hired a pretty useless wannabee assassin, it wasn't like he bought some faceless man.
