When I was in the Air Farce, my wife and I (and child) were so destitute, I brought our wedding ring to the pawn shop; the dude offered us 5 bucks– and we took it.

Wow! Once, the poet E.E. Cummings and his wife left a party with no money for a taxi to get home. While going down the elevator, he said to a man in the elevator, “I will let you step on my hat for $5.” The man took him up on it, and Cummings and his wife got home without a problem.
