Keeping your head down can be profitable.

I agree and found 19 postage stamps and a dollar on my walk earlier. It would be great if every walk had that kind of result. Walking has been profitable for me.

Haha, this is a very interesting post. I have always been taught to look up when walking - so that I can lift my head up high, so to speak. And looking down? Hmm... no wonder I haven't found any money for years. *tsk* *tsk*

If I find any money on the road, I just spend it for a publc cause. If the money is a large sum, I will try to locate the owner and give him back.

you are so right yesturday i found $20.00 outside my house even though it was my husbands it was really nice to have found it and before that i catually found 10.00 at the grocery store on the floor, and before that $2.00 at a gas station by the pump, it is so nice to find money, i know in these times no one is throwing money away literally but it seems like it sometimes!!!

Hello royal!(",) I myself is always looking down when I walk because I wanted to be sure that I'm on the right path and there times when I feel a bit shy to people around me. The sad part is that I can't find any coin. Good for you because you can always find treasures along the way.(",) Great day and God bless!(",)

I do the exact same thing. When I still wrote, I wrote two separate pieces that mentioned walking with my head down. One of them was about the interesting things you see in general, and one was about collecting change and how I often find something at least once a week to put into my change jar. The last time I emptied my jar I had over $200 in it. Now I have about $50, and I've also started saving my $1 bills. I decided if I took away the change and the ones, I would not only be squirreling away my money, but I would also keep myself from buying junk from vending machines!

That is true that you can sometimes find money laying around on the ground, especially in my home. LOL I too have found some money laying around but nothing big as of yet, other than at the ATM machine. One place you do not want to keep your head down is when you are crossing the road though, otherwise you will not see the car coming at you.

yeah its true once ..i found a gold plated watch!! it was great .!! but to me it don't feels good to use any thing which do not belongs to me.! well cannot help i ..but in case of money i love it.!!

yes..actually you're not the only one who experiences this.i also keep my head down when walking,and yes,i have found money on different occasions,i am really hoping to find a big amount..say $5,000?!lol!!!well i hope our lucky eyes continue to find blessings on the ground!!good luck!

My mother has always had an uncanny ability to spot dropped coins and such when she is walking. I have been walking with her in a large store and she will suddenly stop and point under some display or somthing. She is amazing. She too puts the found treasure in a special place and when it has accumulated to a nice amount she does something special with it. Amazing, simply amazing. She is espcially good at finding coins in parking lots.

This can be profitable, that's true. One day I found $100; it was on the carnaval and I was in a square full of people. But, this is an exception, usually I find like 50 cents a week...

Oh,this is the first time to hear about the story like yours.I have never walk keeping my head down.

well now my husband can get off my back..lol. I tend to walk with my head down as well, I am very clumsy and trip a lot so I look down to make sure I am putting my feet in the right places..hehe. I did find an envelope at the grocery store once with over $500 US but I gave it back, I saw a woman looking around frantically, and I walked over and asked what was the matter. She said she had lost an envelope with her rent money inside, I gave it back to her, I just wanted to make sure she was the right person first.

Yes, if you keep your head down you can earn a lot, but you must beware of the envy. Many people may think you look inwards to yourself or so they will try to sell you. Keep your head down but watch where you going and pickup the gems you find in the way.

Yeah, my husband once found over $1200 in an envelope on the ground in a parking lot. Now we always look on the ground and I do pick up every penny I see. You'd be suprised how it can really add up.

lol... you make me laugh for at least 10 minutes. I like your humourous. yeah life needs this kind of humour. but, to tell you the truth, when I walk, I do not look down on the road, I always look up in the sky. maybe in the future, i can pick up .....

I don't particularly keep my head down but sometimes I do find some money in the streets, nothing much and it's rare that it would never accumulate anything useful in savings ..

I try to be alert to everything going on around me. If I keep my head down I may miss the opportunity to wave to someone driving by or to see my dog suddenly across the road, down the street and rapidly disappearing around the corner. Or perhaps I'll spot someone in the distance whom I don't wish to stop and speak with in which instance....THEN I will put my head down so as to appear to be deeply engrossed in whatever is out of others sight. LOL.

My friend and i at school used to go around picking up pennies that people had dropped, it was fashionable back then to throw them away so we used to scoop them all up. As we were only kids we spent them in the tuck shop at break time, but we got bullied like mad for picking them up LOL. I still pick up the odd pennies off the floor is i see them but i wouldn't walk with my nose to the floor looking for them LOL

ya a good thing to observe.but wait a min r u right????? if u believe in god giving u opportunities or fate giving u chances....think again. It is u who invent opportunities for him selfs.......... so don't look down in search of money rather make money by ur self.......am i right????????
