#32: Coins For Days
Coins often get dismissed as having little value, particularly if they are worth less than a dollar. However, this perception overlooks the potential worth of accumulating coins over time. While a single penny may seem insignificant, its value can become significant when you amass a substantial quantity.
In a remarkable example, someone brought an entire deposit box, resembling a small dresser in size, to a bank to have its contents counted. These coins had been left to them, and it turned out that the dresser contained several hundred thousand dollars worth of coins. This story serves as a reminder that even seemingly trivial items can accrue substantial value when collected over an extended period.
