Why doesn’t money grow on trees?

Because the banks control all of the branches

Interesting Fact: A money tree plant is a special type of bonsai tree. The design originated in Taiwan in the 1980s, and it was quickly picked up by many other Asian nations. Areas with large Asian populations frequently have these plants for sale, because they are supposed to bring good luck and fortune. It is particularly associated with China, and the plant is often given out at Chinese New Year complete with red banners and other lucky decorations.

    My poor money tree is not doing well ever since I transported it as part of the decor for graduaiton. It fell over and I had to repot. It is not enjoying its new pot.

    True. And the sad thing is that currently it doesn’t grow in the Bank either, in any currency 🙂
