What Is Your First Memory Of Money?

Maybe not my first memory of money but one of my first

about 7 years of age my Grandfather built me a shoe shine box and I started shining shoes of the men in the neighborhood and at my great grandfather's bait and tackle shop.
My Great Grandfather paid me a quarter to shine his shoes, one of the men who worked for him paid me fifty cents to shine his shoes and told my Great Grandfather he was cheap and should pay me fifty cents too. I still didn't get the quarter raise per shoe shine from my Great Grandfather

At Christmas year before last my Grandfather gave me a very special present .......... he had found the shoe shine box he built me 30 years ago and gave it to me for Christmas ..... it now sits in my office with a sign that reads "Your First Business Venture"
