Today, I found a $10 bill on the ground. I got so excited and felt like I was the richest person alive. That was, until the wind blew it out of my hand, never to be seen again. FML

Today, I found a $100 bill on the ground and was thinking, "I'm so lucky!!" I opened my wallet to find that $300 was missing. I looked back and saw some guy picking up $300. FML

Today, I spotted a $20 bill on the ground. As I bent down to pick it up, the wind blew it away. I ended up running after it like a cartoon character, only to watch it get stuck up a tree. I did consider climbing up said tree, but with my luck I would've fallen off and had to pay 100 times more in hospital bills. FML

Today, I found $20 on the ground. I'm so broke, this is the first time in 3 months that I've had any disposable income. FML

Broke

Today, I spotted a $100 bill on the ground. Being a little strapped for cash, I excitedly picked it up. I discovered it was one of those religious tract papers made to look like a folded bill, with a message scolding me for being greedy. FML

Today, I found a $20 bill on the ground, so I decided to pick it up. It was actually attached to a string and was meant to be a prank by some kids. They failed miserably, so I took the money. They ran up to me and punched me in the balls for taking their cash. FML

Today, I went to withdraw some money out the bank. On a windy day. Next minute, woosh, my money was gone. My last $20. FML

Today, I went to a carnival. While walking around with my cousin, I saw a one hundred dollar bill on the ground. Just before I stepped on it, a man grabbed it. His words? "Don't you just hate it when that happens?" And he walked away. FML

Today, I saw a dime on the ground. When I bent down to pick it up, my $80 dollar pants ripped. FML

Today, I was walking through a rich part of the city and saw 2 dollars on the ground. I didn't pick it so people wouldn't think I was poor. FML

Oops God was trying to bless someone else and you got in the way. The wind was just God fixing the mistake.

That's 2 1/2 gallons of petrol in the states! Or a small pack of diapers in my case. If you've got a $10 you don't want please send it my way.

We rarely get cokes, chips, or other ready made snacks. We buy the basics and make the rest. We are lucky because one store in our area has meat five packs for $19 dollars. I coupon when i can And egg sandwiches are a staple at our house. I have good kids that do not complain, but it still hurts my heart sometimes I can not buy the treats they want. We cut the sattilite tv ages ago in favor of internet for $20 a month so they could have it for school and netflicks. It is just a matter of sacrificing this for that.
