So I have been meaning to take a picture of this dollar since last week when I went to get a bagel from Korean Bagel (It’s a little typical “Bodega” run by a very nice Korean couple and they have some of the best bagels…. but that is a different story). Anyway I got this dollar as change but did not notice until a few days later. I laughed because it really just sums up everything that has been going on with the stock market and in a way everything that I have been ging through lately. I have been very hesitant to spend it and now after shooting it for you people to enjoy I have decided that I am going to save it….. Even though thay also dated it on the back ( 9-20-07) so it was actually written a year ago.

Also I don’t know what the deal is with the “dollar dollar” or the lack of proper punctuation after “My” but it still makes me laugh because I did not notice it until I tried to spend it several days later.

Thanks for sharing this gem, Nathan. It really made my day!

Happy to share. It made my day when I found it in my wallet.

Iâ€™d like to find more dollars in my wallet (annotated or otherwise) but I doubt that is going to happen anytime soon. 😉

That’s cute, even though he no longer has his “fuckin dollar” dollar. You know what they say- if you love something, set it free!

I get the grammar thing, to be less confusing it should’ve been in quotes maybe, like My “At Least I Have A Fuckin Dollar” Dollar. Where is this bodega? Always looking for more good bagels in the Point.

I can’t believe what interest this little dollar has. It’s kind of funny and I’m glad that everyone else finds it as funny as I do.

As for the bagels… I’m sorry to tell you that they are in Carroll Gardens not in Greenpoint. Sorry.

Hey, consumerist used this too. I guess woodendesigner submitted it to their pool:
