<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 872634, member: 4552"]Question has come up several times and there is really some methods pending you. For one thing just ask your relatives for any old coins. Sometimes works and usually not.</p><p>The best method is to find a good spot in a large city during rush hour. Sit on the ground or on a chair, pretend to play a harmonica regardless if you know how or not, place a hat of box on the ground, people will always throw some money in there. Many will throw in a few pennies for the fun of it, however, they don't realize that if thousands do that, you come out way ahead.</p><p>Some years back a TV station interviewed some of the people that do that to see if it's worth thier time. Most didn't want to be shown on TV and for good reasons. The IRS. One person noted he sometimes makes as much as $500/day just begging for money. Many others played musical instruments and had a box full of coins. Most take out any bills right away so it doesn't look like they are making a lot or many will not add to thier piles of money. All agreed that the average person does not realize that thousands of little bits of change grows and grows and grows. </p><p>Some of them had a kid with them. One had a dog. Some pretend to be cripled and some really are. Some just play a radio instead of a musical instrument. All make out probably better than those that work for a living.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
