Here in the philippines, 5 cents has no value at all, when a store give it to you as a change most of people used to ignore it, sometimes i ask myself why do the government fabricate this money, is it just for formality that there are 5 cents circulating with in the country or we really need it in business transaction??? Just wondering, how about you guys is the 5 cents in your country has really a value???

All money has importance. In my country - the United States - our lowest amount of money is the penny which is $.01 or one cent. I have been so broke that I needed as many pennies as I could find to buy a loaf of bread. If you add them all up they amount to something. If I see one on the ground I pick it up and put it in my piggy bank at home. I never turn down money, ever.
I have taught my children the same thing. There is an old saying "Waste not, want not." That means if you don't waste money or something else you will not be needing it later because you saved it instead of throwing it away.
Have a nice day and happy myLotting!!!

yeah, even if it is one cent, we really have to value money. without one or two or even 5 cent, there is no peso.
