I hear you.
Some times I do the economical thing and dont pick up change.
I give myself a hard time for at least an hour then asking myself if I am to good now to pick up money from the street....
:helpme

No...I think it would have to be at least a quarter. Not because I'm rolling in money, but because coins are filthy.....and I think a quarter is high enough in value to break that barrier. But I wouldn't pick up 2 dimes and a nickel, if they were all together.
:2 cents:

Jim_MrSkinCash 09-05-2006 10:08 AM

Great question...even better answers.

And, yes, pick it up!

janosik 09-05-2006 10:34 AM

I have better things to do on street (look at nice girls)

Sveindt Beindt 09-05-2006 10:53 AM

Money are money,small coin here and there makes a note :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

rowan 09-05-2006 11:03 AM

For me it's usually no. It's not necessarily a snobby thing, more a comfort thing. I'm too tall and conspicuous!

Klen 09-05-2006 11:05 AM

Apsolutly no

DateDoc 09-05-2006 11:05 AM

Yes, I would and it would get put in the same place as most of my other change - one of those little charity boxes.

Kevsh 09-05-2006 11:07 AM

Probably one of the most pointless polls in recent GFY memory.
And that's saying a lot ... still, already 49 replies and counting.

haha

a1ka1ine 09-05-2006 11:14 AM

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...

Magix 09-05-2006 12:22 PM

yes, i think so :)

jasonir 09-05-2006 12:23 PM

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

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

Same here...

CamJack 09-05-2006 12:26 PM

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

andrej_NDC 09-05-2006 12:51 PM

Sure, why not double the daily income.

There are people who had a deadly accident in the shower, but I still take a shower everyday.

Doctor Dre 09-05-2006 12:55 PM

I guess I'm lazy... but no

KrisKross 09-05-2006 07:14 PM

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.

selena 09-05-2006 07:21 PM

Hell yes I would bend over to pick up a dime.

MaddCaz 09-05-2006 07:37 PM

goddamn right I would

Vitasoy 09-05-2006 07:48 PM

I won't go out of my way for it, but if it's within arm reach sure why not

jerseygto 09-05-2006 08:14 PM

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..

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

This local tattoo shop did that out side of there front door with a bunch of change :1orglaugh














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 :thumbsup

Nazgrel 04-15-2007 06:41 AM

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 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.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

mailman 04-15-2007 09:59 AM

Pennies make nickles, nickles make dimes, dimes make dollars ;)

CDSmith 04-15-2007 10:00 AM

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

Strickie 04-15-2007 10:02 AM

I'm picking it up

CDSmith 04-15-2007 10:05 AM

Btw, later that same week I won $10 on a $2 scratch ticket.





(Which means the screwdriver was free)
