Spare Change
Posted by ePlus on 4 May, 2006 at 23:32 pmJust after reading this interesting article about a straw being developed to allow people to drink water from rivers, lakes, or anywhere where the water might contain bacteria and other diseases. It sounds like a very good and useful idea, and by the looks of things, people in poorer countries will benefit a great deal from this. But an interesting part of the article caught my eye and made me think about some things:
$3.50 sounds like very little to you and me - but most people in those countries earn less than one dollar a day, with which they have to feed their families,
The thing that came to my mind is how many people I know that throw away “spare change” such as 1, 2 and even 5 pence coins. That’s right, they just throw it away because from what I gather is that it is not cool enough to carry that sort of money with you. Is uselessand it is not needed. Well, I would only agree with it being a bit annoying when you are going to a shop and you are given 10 pence in 1 penny coins. That would piss me off, but under no circumstances I would throw it away on the floor, in the bin or even at people (might hurt them). I just find very sad that people throw money away. When someone throws money away I go pick it up. Call me a scrounger/poor/bum or whatever, but at the end of the it all adds up and I have £10 from money thrown away by people, usually the same people. I am not loosing anything, in fact I am gaining. Also I suppose my good luck with finding money helps too as I find more coins that a normal person would find, I guess my eyes jump straight at money, may it be on tables, floors, room corners, they just jump straight at it, is strange, but is like a money sixth sense.
But the people that throw the money away don’t know that what goes around comes around, and if they throw that 2 pence coin now because they have notes or a lot of 1 pound coins then let it be so, but one day they will have no money, and they will be asking people to borrow money, and they will even take whatever money is given to them, even if it is a 1 pence coin. But because they are so fucking dumb in the first place they don’t realise “Oh, why the fuck did I throw away that spare change when I had it?” - well let me tell you, because YOU’RE A STUPID FUCK who is deprived of common sense and future thinking.
I even know people that when they money because they don’t have any to buy food/drinks/condoms/etc. that even if you give them a 2 pence coin they will accept it, laugh at you and look at you funny then THROW the coin back at you. I mean WHAT THE FUCK? how much more retarded can you can? This shit is unbelievable. But hey, what can you do? You can’t teach retards of what’s right and wrong. I mean, people like that don’t even learn from mistakes, fucking dumbasses. Their stupidity is so low that you get confused, and your brain goes into a “lock” trying to figure out WTF is going on.
Well I don’t care… I just pick up the change people throw away and… Well, I make money, I make profit. I must by now have over £100 from people that have thrown away or left spare change around. I haven’t as of yet counted to see how much I find of spare change. What can I say, I am in a money making business - FOR FREE!
