Upon walking in the market a guy noticed a disheveled young woman sitting alone on a bench.
"Penny for your thoughts miss" he asked, raising his eyebrows.
"It'd take a lot more than that to get whats on my mind, sir"
"Let's start simple then" tossing her a penny.
"Well," running a hand through her golden blonde hair "the weather is finally getting better."
"Yes" he agrees and tosses her a nickel.
"5. Its been 5 years since my husband left, and took the kids."
With a frown on his face he throws her a dime.
"10. The number of days any man has stayed with me since."
He walks up to hand her a quarter, placing a hand on her shoulder for comfort.
"I am 25 years old sir. Almost a quarter of the age you are. And simply just not living the life a 25 year old should."
"Well. That's too bad. But I have a gold dollar in here that wants to hear more. So, may i ask, change for thought my lady?"
"If it's anything to say, 141 is the most anyone has ever invested in me at all. I didn't know i was worth so much. Thank you"
