We still pick up pennies from the sidewalk.

My wife does that. I try but don't have as good of an eye for finding them. She also taught our children to pick them up.

Her goal is a penny a day and last year at the end of December she deposited over $32, and that doesn't count the $20 and $5 bills she found on the ground. She doesn't have me beat as in the past six years I have found three $100 bills and one $50 bill.

Her goal is a penny a day...

All that and deposit bottles and pulling out the couch cushions...

I’m going for a dollar a day!

Just think, a dollar a day and in only a million days I’ll be a millionaire!

Actually somewhat less with the help of compound interest!

That’s my plan.
Your mileage may vary.
