Twenty Dollar Bills

Today my topic is $20.00 bills. With the advent of ATM machines they have become the bane of small business people. It has also become a breeding ground for counterfeiters. Guess those twenties are so easy to make and pass so quickly.

In addition to my selling my books I work at a job that requires that you carry a bank. Since I do not have Bank of America tatooed across my forehead it becomes difficult to make change if you have a run of folks who hand you those $20's. I find that is not only my problem but is a problem for small businesses as well.

So I guess what I am trying to say folks, is let's try have smaller bills or close to the amount we are going to spend when we approach a small business person. And, yes, I know that it is soooooo convenient to drive up to that ATM machine but let's try to raise our level of awareness and help out the little guy.

End of pontificating. See you next week.
