My Daily "Moneywalk"....It Keeps On Paying!
Hi Everyone,
Well, it's a 6-block daily walk on the main street in my hometown...good exercise, fresh air, and money!
The street is lined with sub shops, convenience stores, liquor stores, banks, etc. etc. On average, I find money on the sidewalks or in the gutters on 6 walks out of ten...a lot of $1.00 bills, but plenty of 5's 10's and 20's. My total in bills from Jan. 1, 2009 to Dec. 31, 2009 was a sweet $902.00!
My largest haul was $80.00 in twentys in the gutter in front of a beauty\nail place, and second largest was $36.00 on the sidewalk at a bus stop. I don't keep tabs on change, but I've picked up a ton of it...not to mention gold and silver earrings and the like.
Three days ago, I was heading to my bank's ATM, and I hadn't spotted any treasure so far, and thought I was going to get skunked....but....when I entered the little ATM kiosk, a crisp $20.00 bill was lying in the receive tray! And 4 days ago, I again took my moneywalk and in a convenience store to buy milk, I had to pass their ATM machine, where, on the floor right in front of it, was another $20.00 bill!
If you walk outdoors on a regular basis, pay attention and look d-o-w-n...it pays off for me time and time again.
Happy hunting everyone!

happy hunting ron
I always scan the ground when I walk as well. I pay close attention in large parking lots, especially near the curb or grass down wind from all of the parking. People are careless with their money or too drunk to realize 
There is a wal-mart super center here in town. It is next to an empty field. That's where I do my walking. Haven't done as well as you have, though
