I use my extra cash to line litter boxes, then I just toss the whole mess in the garbage, poop, cash, litter and all.

Any one else have a creative way to rid yourself of all those extra dollars?

I just push it out the window in wads. On windy days the little hundred dollar bills just sail for miles.

Then, if there's any left over, I buy one of those McMansions up at the Quarry and joyfully waste $26,000 in taxes in year.

Otherwise, if I have the energy, I bag it and put it out with the recycling.

At this time of year, paper currency makes very pretty garden mulch. Especially the larger denominations with the cool colors.

Sometimes, when I am feeling a little low, I just take a wad of those Benjamins, roll 'em up, and smoke 'em. Fantastic!

Also, just to make sure I don't have too much cash lying around, I give it to my kids so they can color, make collages, and -- my favorite -- currency papier mache.

I always send mine to a lovely family in Nigeria (they call me "dear")who live in ghastly cicumstances since tragedy befell them.
If I have a sou or two leftover, I send it to Governor Corzine so we can get a handle on this budget thing.
Then, with all the remaining twenty dollar bills, I fold them into exquisite origami cranes and let my cats bat them around.
Oh, the fun we have!

I give my extra cash to the government so that can gift it to people who make bad decisions, have a poor work ethic, and/or choose not to work.

I just realized a new use for the extra cash: Pay someone to manage it!

It works out just swell: for a set fee (plus commissions, loads, etc.) someone else can do lots of research and call or email me with every tidbit, insight and opportunity that arises. It's probably something I can do on my own, but why, considering considering it only takes about six HUNDRED hours a month to confer with a professional?
