I have. I've thrown 6p away in total.

Someone tryed to annoy me by sitting down and saying "Here Crooks, here's 5p." I then aimed towards the nearest bin and threw the coins into the bin. I surprised everyone who was watching greatly.

Then on Friday one of my Friends was trying to annoy me by pretending to be a communist like me and saying Stalin was good and stuff, And I go, "No I hate Stalin." Then he said "Everyone who's a communist is poor so here's 1p." I immediately put the money into the bin.

Then he starting saying. "You'll get charged for treason for defacing the Queen's face" and I was like "Queen, who cares about someone who just happens to be called the Queen."

I ripped up a 100 dollar bill -- (long story) making the US is 100.00 less richer because of it.

I ask myself if trowing money away itīs a good form showing a point of view. liking or dislinking we all live in a world ruled by the money and if we think we have enough we should try to help people who have less.
I consider this a better option to show our point of view.

Well, I have only thrown away 5 cents (not deliberately, but via the vacuum cleaner after having dropped a coin on the floor). Firstly, I am too poor to throw away money and secondly, if I was able to 'spare' some for such a purpose, I'd much rather give it to someone who needs it! So even if I had enough, it still wouldn't happen.

Don't mistake this as 'respect' for laws relating to destruction of money or money itself, but simply common sense and realism.

Now that is possibly a better idea.

I think next time i'll just keep a set of those plastic coins so I can pretend to throw money into bins.
