Another memory of my childhood

I was just throwing the change I had in my pocket on the table and I had another memory from the ol' childhood.

When I was a kid I gave my Dad a penny. I told him that he can keep it and that way he'll never be broke. I thought that if he always kept 1 penny that he'd never actually be 100% poor. I was probably a year old at the time. He still carries the penny in his wallet.
