        i don't mean spend all day long searching for dimes on the ground, but say you're walking down the street and you just watch the ground and see a dime... yeah.. its not gonna hurt... money is money, what if you had $50 in your pocket and were walking down the street, and saw a dime, didn't care, kept walking, and then had to pay for something and it came out to be $50.10? oh damn, i don't have an extra dime... fuck...

            I have been known to throw several dollars of change in the trash.

            It takes more time sorting it than it's worth.

                I know a guy that's in a wheelchair for the rest of his life because of that. Totally not worth it.

                        Say it takes you 5 seconds to pick up a dime. That's $1.20 a minute and $72 an hour. I'd say that's worth it.

I got a bottle of superglue and superglued a quarter to the ground at a K-mart, leaving my foot over it and letting it dry. I then casually went in the store and came back out a few minutes later and just watched as person after person tried to pick up the coin, get frustrated, then leave..


                                            This local tattoo shop did that out side of there front door with a bunch of change














                                            As far as the poll goes.. I can't answer it, because it is 50/50 for me..

                                            If it is heads up I grab it, heads down I leave it

                                                Yes I would.

                                                But only becouse its a rather rare find on the streets of Norway.
                                                Had it been the lowest value norwegian coin however, I probably wouldnt.

I got a bottle of superglue and superglued a quarter to the ground at a K-mart, leaving my foot over it and letting it dry. I then casually went in the store and came back out a few minutes later and just watched as person after person tried to pick up the coin, get frustrated, then leave.

                                                    I watched for about an hour then went home. I came back the next day with a friend and we watched some more (god damn it, we were bored as fuck ok?). For some reason it was one of the most entertaining things to watch. Finally after about two hours (we went and ate some lunch and came back) some asshole with some steel-toed boots kicked and kicked at the coin until it came undone and picked it up. I still hate that guy.

                                                    That said, hell yes I would try to pick it up. The only thing I won?t pick up is a penny because pennies are forbidden in the Archiot religion. Anything brown is.

                                                        This one time as I was approaching the entrance to a big department store I saw a coin in the parking lot. It didn't take long to realize it was glued to the pavement, so I went in the store, bought a screw driver along with the rest of the stuff I was there for, and on my way out I scraped that coin off the pavement and put it in me pocket.


                                                        I was raised to believe that found money is good luck.... ESPECIALLY a penny.

                                                        Fuck you all you penny haters. :D

                                                                        This reminds me of that phrase that went around; how it wasn't worth Bill Gate's time to spend the seconds to pick up a dollar he saw while walking down the street, or something...

                                                                        Also reminds me of my last road trip with the wife... We stopped at a gas station and she spied a toy car. Picked it up and said "Look what I found!". She showed it to me then threw it back on the pavement.

                                                                        I think it was the moment of finding "something" that made her pick it up, all happy she was, in the middle of bumb-fuck-Egypt, that made the moment special. The realization of it being just a toy car and adding unnecessary clutter to life, I think, made her throw it back.

                                                                        A dime, on the other hand, can be thrown in a coin jar and eventually cashed in.... So yea, I'd pick up the dime.

                                                                              If you apply the principles of COST/BENEFIT analysis and OPPORTUNITY COSTS, the answer normally is NO. Why? Assuming that Bill Gates makes TENS OF THOUSANDS an hour (or more) just by helping to manage his company, the cost of picking up a $100 bill would be in the thousands of dollars. His benefit would be $100. In this case, he shouldn't pick up the bill. The same analysis applies for Opportunity costs. If the REPLACEMENT activity for making thousands of bucks yields only $100, then the activity shouldn't be replaced.

                                                                              A critique of this economics analysis is that people aren't ALWAYS rational..... meaning, due to their emotional nature or maybe cultural or group dynamics, they don't always make the most rational decisions.

                                                                              Anyway, just doing a little brain dump off an interesting thread...r

                                                                                    Now the odds of that ever happening again are beyond remote, it still would not stop me. When I found that penny it was on a busy sidewalk and several people if not hundreds must of passed it over.
