Money Confession – Pennies

I asked a number of people over the last couple of months to anonymously give me their money confession. These are some of the money confessions that I was given wich I felt worthwhile sharing with you. This is confession number 21 in the series:

Although I’m not quite a millionaire yet, I also still pick up pennies
Tee-hee, I do, too! My 9-year-old daughter and I exercise together early in the morning (I say we’re going for a walk; she calls it a three-mile forced march), and finding coins along the way is really the only part of it she looks forward to. She usually scores from 2-6 coins, usually pennies. My husband even suggested “seeding” the route we take with a handful of coins, just because she enjoys looking so much. So far, I’ve resisted temptation.
I also confess to having glued coins down to the floor way back in the day, just for the fun of watching others try to pick them up.
that attitude is why you are a millionaire.
