I have a collection of lucky pennies, and I like to carry some of them with me. So far, they seem to be working!

Pennies do not come from heaven. They have to be earned here on earth.

If had a penny for every strange look I've gotten from strangers on the street I'd have about 10 to 15 dollars, which is a lot when you're dealing with pennies.

I used to collect knick-knacks, like wizards, trolls and little buddhas, and arrange them like precious things on a shelf.

I used to keep a coin jar and would cash it in when I was pinched a little, back-in-the-day. I would always be shocked when the amount totaled $200 to $300.

I shop at thrift stores a lot. I have a lot of silver pitchers and I put my flowers in those. I collect antiques, so there are a lot of old rocking chairs... My friends call my home the vortex because nobody wants to leave.

Yes, I've never inherited a penny!

As a kid I collected stamps, pebbles on the beach, anything. I liked to have at least 10 of something.
