THE $20 CHALLENGE

[pennynoob]

I just wanted to share that I am going to take a $20 dollar bill and buy 40 rolls of pennies... I will then take my $20 in pennies and keep track of everything I sell and buy using that money only. I will post how I did after a few weeks!

I don't get it either.

Buy and sell what?

What is your goal?

I think the OP is investing $20 and going see if he/she can make a profit by selling the variety of pennies/cents he/she finds.

Good idea, always ways to have a little fun. I think you will break even but will have a good time.

 

[Mackaydon]

Reads like the OP has plenty of free time on his hands.
