That's a fact. Old "abandon ship" joke.
Straight down.
Mine alwaays started with the heart speeding up, tunnel vision, arrythmia, and then blackout. I wore a Holter monitor for 24 hours and it recorded my heart rate going up to as high as 177bpm 52 times. They put me on medical leave for a couple of months to reduce the stress and fatigue and I wasn’t allowed to drive. I had stress from many directions. I was working around 84 hours a week on rotating shifts, was in management, and my husband couldn’t remember where I was. He called me about every two hours asking where I was and when I would be home. I gave up and retired at 58. LOL
The breath holding compresses the heart to slow it down and naturally relaxes you.
The cardio exercises kept the stress related adrenaline burned off.
If I feel a spell coming on and start the breathing, breath holding exercise, it never goes to the tunnel vision/arrhythmia stage.
The doctors said there was nothing wrong with my heart but stress can cause a heart attack in a healthy heart and/or a stroke.

Ha. Most of those methods would result in the money being accidentally thrown in the trash."
I talked to a man who went to visit his country grandfather (who was a neighbor of mine) years ago. He was playing with some pipes in the yard, and his grandpa told him to leave them alone. His grandpa took one, screwed the end cap off and out poured a stack of quarters! And there were a bunch of pipes scattered all over the yard! Well, apparently this guy wasn't on speaking terms with his folks.... and as luck would have it after grandpa died, they came and cleaned up the yard and threw all those pipes away!
I notice from visiting folks in the hospital, ER, etc that when they get relaxed their breathing rate drops and I see their SPO2 monitor dropping. The monitors are typically set to beep at SPO@ 92%. So I yell at ‘em to breathe deeper. As few as four/five deep breathes gets their number back up to 95/96/97. Sometimes the high heart rate is the issue but other stuff happens also. Docs most frequently recommend the big inhale, hold, slow exhale and if that works, fine. What I also notice is that they don’t get around to mentioning that it’s best to do the breathing thru the nose as opposed to mouth-breathing. At the same time I notice they miss the other method which is deep inhale thru the nose, then rapid exhale thru the nose. There is benefit to cycling the lungs more often and the forceful exhale helps blow stuff out of the way that doesn’t belong there. Mouth breathing wastes oxy and causes burps.
A lot of years of heavy physical activity (I ran nearly 30,000 miles) convince me that rapid deep breathing gets one back to normal more quickly. And three quick, deep breathes usually gets the SPO2 back where it belongs. Try both methods and go with what works.
My grandfather buried his money under the house in coffee or tobacco cans.
A man I worked with rolled $100 dollar bills and hid them from his wife in the barrel of a 12ga shotgun. He called it his “she” money. That worked good until he grabbed the wrong gun to go bird hunting one day and blew $100 bills to smithereens.
Dumbest thing I ever heard of.

Sorry about the double post. It’s the touch screen on the tablet. Too sensitive.

Collectibles and precious metals. Bought from small vendors, that take cash. I read somewhere.
You can do it in a car IIRC on the Chesapeake bay bridge...
Heck, when I was working in Chronic Care, which I did for years, it was common to see orders ‘Maintain Sat 88-92.’
Anything below 88, I freak. I once had a Patient with a Sat of about 78%. That was a long time ago. She was middle aged (50s) and was born with Tetralogy of Fallot. Her mother read me the Riot Act when I went in, saw the numbers and headed toward that flow meter.
I learned something on that day.
I knew a garbage guy that got a whole booked morgan collection, speculation was someone’s wife tossed all a guys coin books after he died.
A buddy of mine working at a county dump raced one of his coworkers to a box thrown off one of those “we get rid of your junk” trucks that sounded full of jingly stuff and lost to his coworker. It was full of silver dollars.
You rascal you.

A few years ago, Grandma picked a very old/beat up book out of a Junk Book bin for me.
First good thing was the book was an early edition Kipling I'd been looking for.
The bonus was the dozen or so $100's had been left as "bookmarks" by a previous owner.
Really pleasant evening reading sessions when you come across things like that.....
Oh my, you are right! Petey has been absent a long time. Sure hope she is OK.
