ATM machines - from a child's point of view

[TOOLman]

My friend told me an amusing anecdote about her 5-y/o daughter (probably the cutest kid ever born BTW).

They were discussing the purchase of something, and my friend said that they couldn't afford it right then. The girl suggested that they'd let her father pay for it "since he buys money from a machine in the wall." She also concluded that the reason my friend never had any money was because she never "bought" money from those machines. :)

I thought it was a cute story, but my friend had a tough time trying to explain what an ATM machine was, and that you didn't actually "buy" money from it :)

I wish I could buy money. Only me though. It wouldn't do me any good if everyone could buy money. ;) I'll take 5 Benjamin's for a dollar please!:D

It is cute how children see things sometimes.

I'm still trying to figure out why drive up ATMs have Braille! :confused:

If you could see how some people over here drive, you'd understand! :rolleyes::D

When I was little, I would go shopping with Mom and she would say we don't have money for that. I always told her to just write a check then. :)

My thoughts exactly!:D

My son seems to think I have an endles supply of money because I'm always putting money into the deposit drop box. I wish! http://www.ihs4ever.com/~cwm/otn/confused/ne_nau.gif
