Thanks, now I feel bad about picking up every quarter or dime I see. i mean hell, in the moment I'm just thinking: "Fuck yeah, now I can afford bus fare instead of having to walk in the rain!" But apparently I should just be leaving the money to be swept into the drains by streetcleaners.

all stereotypes are true. that's how they become stereotypes. they are one of the best methods for predicting future behavior.

You have no idea how angry I get having to explain the basics of generalizations, why they exist, and how they're useful, as compared to everything else we do in life, like expecting a rock to fall when we release it. People just regurgitate "hurr durr painting with a broad brush!" and other fucking stupid lines that prove they never once put a modicum of thought into it.

i have the exact same frustrations. the drones will always come up with ONE exception and say "duh, SEEEEE!! this proves stereotypes are wrong, duuuuuhhh!" yeah, they only work 95% of the time, so we should focus on the 5% of the time they don't. it's like if you are playing roulette and 95% of the wheel is black, and 5% of the wheel is red, but they both pay off even money, are you going to bet red or black??

violates the spirit of the Torah... The gleanings are for the poor and widows... The first pass is for those who work. Essentially money on the ground is a gleaning... grain left in the field after the main harvesting pass occurs... That's how I look at it. But that's Tanakh what the Talmud says is what this God hater goes by I assume.

let me guess... you've rejected God in your heart and as it takes one to know one... well the shoe fits.

Done this for years. I have found hundreds of dollars doing this.

Same, ive had a lifelong interest in coins in particular. I got a silver 1960s dime in my change last year buying an ice tea, so the change was slightly more valuable than the money I handed over, that was a highlight. I found a few old silver dollars cleaning an attic once & the owner let me keep one of them as a finders fee. Coins have a history, pennies from the 1950s look like money, todays pennies look like shiny turds.

Worked as gas station cashier and a guy came in with a bunch of silver dollars & half dollars desperate for gas. I rung him up for 5 bucks or so in gas and used my perk to draw out cash from my pay. It was a good day that day.

In the 50s a penny also had some buying power.
