Let's just put this in a hypothetical perspective okay. If you were traveling the country side and came across a tree with money for leaves. What would you do with the money. Of course, you are the only one who found it and only you can take it back to where you came from. Well, if I found such a tree, I would try to get as much money as I can and bring it home. I will 10% to charity, 50% to the bank, 20% to my parents, and the rest maybe for traveling. LOL I don't know exactly how much the money is, let's just say that there is a ton of leaves and to make it even more fun, you can carry an infinite number of leaves. Fare enough? Okay, start typing. Cheers! Zorlone

Unbelievable you read my mind Who cares about the leaves when you can get the seeds? I would then plant it in a pot, wait until it grows, then buy a piece of land and then plant all the other trees.

He he he! I'm sorry guys this is not a fruit bearing tree! LOL. You can only take home the leaves. However, both of you gave good suggestions, but that is just too greedy! He he he. Cheers!!!

Free money anyone? hi there Zorlone...... well hypothetically speaking if i were to find a money tree growing somewhere while traveling the country side I would most likely leave the money there and allow it to keep growing. As it would be a very beautiful site while the money leaves are still on it but a pitiful site if everyone came along and decided to pluck them all away. But it's highly unusual that we will see a literal money tree so have a nice day and keep on dreaming...... Peace out. Happy mylotting

I would get all the money and use it to pay off my debts, then I would put the rest in the bank and let it earn me interest.

As I told you above, I would look for the seeds. If I cannot, I would try to find a way to take a branch, or even the whole tree No that is impossible, I wouldn't know where to fit it not even in my car. As for how spending the money, I would definitely give a good share to my parents, or better I would buy a smaller house for them and in a nice and quiet environment. Then my sister will have a share too... she helps me out a lot and she deserves it. I would pay out my loans and find a new way of investing them and finally open up my own business.

That is sweet! Buying your parents a house melted my heart. hehehe. I would have done the same. Property nowadays is just not easy to own. You can carry with you the entire leaves/money on the tree. LOL. Well, at least that's how I would imagine it to be. Even if this was just make believe, it's still fun to think of other people before yourself. Cheers! Zorlone
