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.

Sure, why not double the daily income.

I guess I'm lazy... but no

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.
|
Hell yes I would bend over to pick up a dime.
|
goddamn right I would
|
I won't go out of my way for it, but if it's within arm reach sure why not
|

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. |

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 |
I'm picking it up
|
Btw, later that same week I won $10 on a $2 scratch ticket.
(Which means the screwdriver was free) |

Are you saying you won't eat a brown M&M?
I know they're not as cool as the green, "home run" M&M's, but that brown one offering the delicate squishiness of vagina just can't be passed up. *shrug* Quote:

no, I'm afraid of the koodies ...

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. |
Sure, why not
|
i voted "yes" ofcourse

Polish's question reminds me of a very BASIC economics class scenario: Is it worth Bill Gates' time to pick up a $100 bill?
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 |
anything under a buck, no. and even then if it looks filth encrusted, no.
|
I don't pick up pennies but anything bigger, yes.
|
Yes I would.
When I was thirteen I picked up a 1909 S VDB penny, that really made my year. I still have that coin, even though it is only in VG condition. 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. |
bad board.....
|
No I would not.
:2 cents: |
Yes.. they're good luck :)
|
Of course, 1 dime is 3 months worth of interest on a dollar.
|
my new custom is to pick up the 10c and replace it with a $1 coin.
|
I only pick up paper money, not change.
|
I put my finger in the coin return of payphones when I walk by them.
|
fuck no..

No, I wouldn't pick up a 10 cents coin but I'd pick up everything that's more than $0,99 |
