Will you pick up a penny? Or does it have to be larger like a nickel,quarter,dollar,five dollars,10 dollars? I'm interested in finding out how people in different countries value money.

I'll usually pick up any sort of money I see on the ground. It doesn't really matter what it is, if I see it, I pick it up. Sometimes I don't care whatever is on the ground, sometimes I'm just not in the mood to bend down and get it so I leave it there. Someone else will probably benefit from it more than I would.

I only pick up bills, maybe quarters. I'm usually in a rush, and to stop to pick up some change would be a waste. Besides that, it would also stall whatever strangers are walking behind me; abruptly stopping in the middle of the busy sidewalk is rude to the people walking behind you. The street is also extremely dirty, so I'd prefer not to touch it.

I would pick up a penny because it is suspossed to be lucky!
The most I have ever found was $100 just lying around. My son seems to have a lot of luck in finding money.
