How I wish I could give you a gazillion claps for this, Janna. What a great read!

I made a comment here about a rich man I know, and that he'd have something to say about NOT picking coins up.

When he was poorer than he is today, he used to collect the loose change left in trays at the airport. He said that once you have been poor, a cent becomes a building block to wealth. I have never forgotten that.

AND, I have to say...what a terrific heading! It sure drew me in.
