Mind you, these were underwear from when I was about twelve. I just wish I knew about high yield savings accounts back then. About a year and a half ago I found $60 stashed in a pair of underwear.

Second, winter coats already? Down here in Houston I have finally shut off my air conditioner. The temperature is not going to reach almost 90! A coat is still a ways off, but I don't think I left any money in them. (Sadly I have almost 6-8 coats and it is rare to wear them here) Last, I don't know if you know who Robert Earl Keen is but in the song "Feelin' Good Again" a line goes "But I reached into my pocket Found three twenties and a ten It feels so good feelin' good again" I have never had a problem of not knowing that I had $70 in my pocket, that has always annoyed me when listening to that song.

Last, I don’t know if you know who Robert Earl Keen is but in the song “Feelin’ Good Again” a line goes “But I reached into my pocket
Found three twenties and a ten
It feels so good feelin’ good again”

I have never had a problem of not knowing that I had $70 in my pocket, that has always annoyed me when listening to that song.

I think it was her mom's way of giving her money. My room mate in college used to find $20′s in her pockets all the time. I think it was her mom’s way of giving her money.

The only cash I touch now is quarters for laundry and the occasional office donation. :-) Sadly I won’t get to experience the joy of finding money in my pockets since I stopped using cash more than a year ago.

Remembering just how good it feels to find cash in my winter pockets, I started putting $10s in there at the end of the season. But now I know that they're there, so the excitement and surprise has been drained. It's kind of like setting your alarm clock 5 minutes fast, but then subconsciously recognizing this so that the joy of an extra snooze is lost. I’ve actually ruined myself on this.
