I had to re-read the thread. Many copy cats.
Here's one my mom said a lot.

You look like a million bucks.
I feel like a million bucks.
I'm broke as a convict.
He was throwing his money around like there was no tomorrow.
Find a penny, pick it up, and all the day you'll have good luck (face up, of course).
This is getting harder. You can bet on it.

On a more international note:
"Half a Sixpence" Film and song.
"A Kid for Two Farthings" Film.
"Die Dreigroschenoper" (The Threepenny Opera).
British sayings:
"To spoil the ship for a ha'porth of tar." Skimp on a job and you'll regret it.
"Not worth a brass farthing."
"To accept the King's (or Queen's) shilling.": Payment made to a new recruit on joining the army.
Finally a story concerning Viscount Castlereagh (The British Chief Secretary for Ireland early 1800's).
While walking through Phoenix Park, Dublin, one evening he was allegedly accosted by a lady of the night.
"Can I interest you in a twopenny upright sir?"
"Madam, do you realise who I am? I'm Lord Castlereagh!"
"Ah well sir, then that'll be costing you fourpence."

"If I had that kind of money would I be working here?" A man is standing at the bus stop and his arms are full of grocery bags. He asks a very attractive woman to reach into his pocket and take out his bus fare. She responds: "I can't find your bus fare but I did find a roll of quarters.  " |
