    When my son was 2 or 3, he used to pat the pocket of my pants every night to see if there was any change for his Piggy Bank.

    One day I got to work and was sure that I was supposed to have $25 or so in my pocket. Not a dime.

    I got home and asked my wife if she had grabbed my money. She hadn't. No idea.

    Then I thought of my son. When I checked the Piggy Bank, there was a wad of bills sticking out the slot. I had found my $25.

    When I opened the Piggy Bank, I also found the little investor had gotten me for about $150 over some period of time. Not sure how long he had pulled off the Heist of the Century, but it was a heckuva little pile.

    Started his Savings Account with it. And was a darn sight more careful about what I left laying around. [:D]

    Glad you all enjoyed the story. I still chuckle when I think about it. And now that he is 21 and branching out into the world....I realize he was a bargain back when he was little.

    Don't knock it, my buddy Ronnie used to go out and get pretty hammered on Friday nights. He would wake up and check his cash and freak about how much he spent but could never tell his wife.

    One day she asked Ronnie if they could buy a house and he said their was no way they would have enough for the down payment.

    Well.....seems she swiped enough of his dough over the years she had that covered!
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!
