I’ll stop dead in my tracks to pick up a penny on the ground! There are many sayings about finding pennies. My mom always told me someone was visiting me from beyond. I don’t know about all the sayings and meanings, but I do like to find money! In all seriousness, I am humbled that people want to visit me by way of “found penny” on the ground!
According to a new survey, 56% of Americans say they’ll stop to pick up a penny if they see one on the street.
And it doesn’t even matter how much money you make. People who make over $80,000-a-year are just a tiny bit less likely to stop for a penny than people who make less than $40,000.
Now . . . SOME of us have higher standards.
11% of people say they’ll only stop for a nickel . . . 6% for a dime . . . 14% for a quarter . . . and 6% won’t stop to pick up ANY coin in the street.
