US $ : Aha moment!

People experience aha moment/s in life when they suddenly discover something that was previously unknown. Mine happened few years ago. As always there is a story behind that moment of truth 😊 Happened when I was doing the laundry of my clothes! All the clothes from the laundry basket went for washing and drying without me checking the clothes for any contents. Unbeknownst to me there were couple of US one $ bills in one of my trousers. After the washing and drying cycle, I collected my clothes from the dryer. Imagine my surprise getting couple of US dollars as reward for my effort! The dollar bills came out crisp and clean too! Wow! 👌 I later learned that the US $ bill is actually made of linen and cotton, contrary to my thinking it’s all paper. 🙏 That explains the resilience of the currency! 👍
The aha moment: Discovering that the US $ is strong 👏
Let me plead mea culpa before anyone accuses me of money laundering 🙏 In my defense it was an accident and many great discoveries have been made accidentally! 😂
