This is one of my
Pet Peeves.

People all over this
Country

and don't bother to pick it up.

This is the only

where you will find money laying on the ground.

Years ago,
when I was with my kids,
I got out of my car at a grocery store's parking lot
and I saw two quarters lying on the ground.

So I bent down to pick them up.
From the other side of the parking lot,
My Kids & I
hear this old lady start to laugh,
asking,
"You're picking up pennies?"

My kids were still pretty young,
like still in car seats young.
I would always try to teach them the value of money.

Even a penny.
I often told them,
it takes at least
$1.00
to get an ice cream from the
Ice Cream Man.

So,
they would always pick up any money they found on the ground
and save it for the
Ice Cream Man.

Today,
on my walks,
I still pick up money I find.

I don't care who laughs at me.
I once worked for a service company where I had to make my own appointments with customers.
One of the
Richest Person
I have ever met,
and I have met a few,
parked her car on the street in front of her
Five Million Dollar Home,
for our appointment.
After getting out of her vehicle,
she had the biggest smile on her face.

she had just found
Eighty Five Cents!

If this person,
who obviously didn't need the change,
would bend down to pick up money on the ground,
then I can do it too!

Rich People
are not

because they throw money
or give their money away.
are not
Rich
because they throw money

They are
Rich
because they know the value of money.
They use the money to benefit themselves
and they know how foolish others can be with their money.

I told you that I believe,
if someone is willing to pay you,
you should make as much money as you can.
You never know when it might end.

It is the
Top 1%
need to realize,
that having all the money,
is not really happiness.

A great
Documentary
about this subject,
is the
2010 Movie
called
"Happy."
It states that people,
who pursue money for happiness,
more often then not,
are the
Unhappiest People
in the
World.

The greed of money,
the need for money,
never ends.
Even at the cost of

and
Friends.

People who just want money
and only money for their happiness,
once they get some,
find that they want

of it.

Never being satisfied with any amount they have.
"And the pursuit of happiness?"
It begins with a good family structure,
good supportive friends,
and just enough money to pursue what items you need in life for survival!

If you are one of the lucky ones,
to have all three in life,
you have been blessed,
two out of three,
still blessed,
one out of three,
try to find a way to get another.
Still,
you are blessed compared to half of the
Human Beings
living today.

So,
don't just drop your change on the ground,
save up your change
and give it to a
Charity
of your choice.

Also picking up money means you have respect for the creator since every penny gas the word God on it.
