A few years ago, I received a fun letter from a reader who developed a hobby of looking for money in gutters, parking lots, streets, sidewalks, and other public places. And he keeps a running tab. He included a copy of his “free-money journal” from the previous year.
Recently, he sent an update that shows he is now averaging nearly $50 a month. Not bad! But I couldn’t help but wonder how his payoff might climb if he knew about other places that harbor free money.
