    Six Pennies Makes A Dollar

    Economics according to my 4 yr old nephew Cooper. From Johnson City Press.com

    Six pennies make a dollar. You need just $9 to buy a house, but a kids'
    fast-food meal costs $90.49. And where do you get the money to buy such
    things? Church. During breakfast.
    That's economics according to 4-year-old Cooper Bunch, a pupil at
    Princeton Prep, a private preschool in Johnson City.
    "Money is what you put in your piggy bank, and you use it," he said. "It
    comes from church. It comes when you get some breakfast. It's a lot.
    "You buy something good with your money - a Monkey George, Pacman,
    Spider-Man, anything you like. They're like $6 or $10 or $9. A house? They
    cost like $9. A car - it costs $94."

    Maybe he's channeling someone from the 30s?
