    I usually dont look for money because i just feel like its a waste of my precious time. But then again theres a lot of things that i should do when it comes to scrapping that i dont, oh well thats just how it goes i guess.

    Hehe, well PT, looking for and picking up money, to me anyway, is Not a waste of my time. As a matter of fact I taught both of my children soon after they learned to walk, how to "eyeball" the ground, where ever we went. Believe it or not, once they got going at it, they were averaging 6 to 8 or 9 coins daily on a mile long walk to the closest mall and back. I taught them that it was a skill that they could utilize their whole life and those lost pennies and the other coins they'd find, all add up. They could count to a hundred, using their very own found coins, long before they went to kinder-garden. To this day, I'll still somehow find the time (a second or three) to scoop a penny up off the sidewalk as I'm passing by anyway. The squatting or bending involved while retrieving that cent, adds to my mini-multi exercise program for the day and helps keep me fairly fit. Anyway, each to his/her own, but wanted to share my Canadian 2 cents here in Ronny's thread. lb
