Money, Bananas & PIN Number

“Burning Thru Money For The Light Bill…A Succulent Tree …& I Can Only Remember 4 Numbers”

Philadelphia is literally powered on burning money.  The Federal Reserve in Philadelphia takes money that’s too worn out to be in circulation and sends it to local power plants, where it’s burned for electricity.

Technically, bananas aren’t grown on trees.  The banana plant is sometimes called a banana tree, but it’s actually an herb since it has a succulent stem, instead of a wood one.

 

The inventor of the ATM wanted to use six-digit PINs . . . but when he ran the idea by his wife, she could only remember four digits.  And because of her so-so memorization skills, it’s been four digits ever since.
