Never underestimate the true value of a handful of pocket change.
永远不要小看一把零钱的价值。
Rick Snyder, a 69-year-old resident of Manatee County, Florida, refused to sit still after he retired. Instead, he tended to one of his passions outside of work: caring for the feral cats living throughout his community."I've always liked animals. I've been taking care of feral cats for years and I started noticing a lot of change laying around," Snyder told the Bradenton Herald. "So I started picking it up and keeping track of it."
69岁的里克·斯奈德住在福罗里达州的孟那堤郡,虽然已经退休但他并不甘心每天坐在摇椅里无所事事,而是做着工作以外自己热爱的事:照顾和他生活在同一个社区的野猫。“我一直很喜欢动物。我照顾这些野猫已经有很多年了。有一天我发现地上有很多遗落的硬币,”斯奈德对《布雷登顿先驱报》说道。 “于是就开始捡硬币并做好记录。”
Since having this idea more than 10 years ago, Snyder has managed to collect $21,495 in loose change weighing more than 1 metric ton, reported the Herald Tribune. Waking up around 4 a.m. each day, Snyder would walk through town, and gather coins from vacuums at local car washes and [vending machine]vending machines [/w]along his way to take care of the cats. He told the Bradenton Herald that he walks anywhere between 45 and 48 miles each week and collects an average of $5.60 in change each day.
