I had never seen this before. It’s called the Fugio Cent and was an early American coin designed by Benjamin Franklin:
What I like is that “Mind Your Business” slogan. It’s a nice idea for money to have helpful advice on it. We should bring that back. Here are some of my ideas for new helpful advice to put on a penny:
* Stop whining.
* Don’t read money and drive.
* Brush your teeth.
* Don’t put on train tracks.
* Good for one wish when deposited in fountain.
* Don’t work; don’t eat.
* If you actually pay for things with these, you’re a jerk.
* Shut up, stupid.
* Collect 99 more and win one item from the dollar store.
* Democrats will take these.
What advice would you put on money?
I can’t buy happiness but I can make misery tolerable.

Never name a character “Jar Jar”
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

MINE, buzz off
“I belong to you, not the government.”
“Cowboy Coin – Use To Round Up”
Redeemable for 1 gumball
“Save me”
“Keep away from politicians”
“Untaxable”
“Works even during a power outage. Take that, bitcoin!”
“Unless you give this away RIGHT NOW in exchange for nothing, you are a capitalist.”
“Did you earn me, or take me?”
“Buy Guns and Ammunition”
“Don’t follow leaders, use me in parking meters.”
“Jesus saves. Do you?”
“I have no idea what “fiat” means, either. Are you going to use me or not?”
I want one of those.
Howsa bout:
“Make Bacon while the sun shines”
“Good for one free back rub”
“Need a penny… Get a job”
“Worth more than an Obama promise”
“A Trillion is How Much?!”
“A borrower, nor lender be of me.”
* sun is not a giant head.
* not legal tender.
* good for one gumdrop.
I’m for the gumdrop monetary standard. It is far superior to the gold or fiat standard. I could be swayed toward gumballs, though.

Fix the blame, not the mistake.
Welcome to Capitalism! 🙂
