As Mother’s Day and Father’s Day rolled around this
year I felt myself thinking about some of the phrases and sayings my parents
always told me. To this day I still think ‘brush, brush, brush, up, up, up,
down, down, down’ when I brush my teeth thanks to my mother! My parents had
many random, funny and wise words of wisdom they passed down to me though out
the years and many of them had to do with saving money. “A penny saved is a
penny earned” was one of their favorites taken from Benjamin Franklin.
I decided to do a little research and find out what
other people had to say about saving money. Some of it was funny, some of it
serious and some simply for comic (or financial stress) relief! Enjoy what history finest had to say about a
penny earned!
