My husband and I always tease each other about this. Whenever either one of us finds something while we’re out, we always come home and say: “Here’s another penny to add to our retirement fund!” (Over 22 years time, we might actually have $3.00 or $4.00 in that little bank on the bookshelf by now!)

If you are really careful about how you go about picking up those coins, you do all right.
