A new C-note is coming

Next month, the U.S. Treasury will unveil a new $100 bill, with new security features meant to foil sophisticated counterfeiters:

The new bills will contain a Crane & Co. security feature called Motion, containing up to 650,000 microlenses embedded in the printing which will allow for an underlying image to shift when the bill is moved.
Apparently, when you turn the new bill slightly at an angle, Franklin's photo will change to this.

Fitting.


The Chinese gov't has probably paid more attention to Franklin's writings than we do:


A penny saved is a penny earned.


Necessity never made a good bargain.


Rather go to bed with out dinner than to rise in debt.

I conceive that the great part of the miseries of mankind are brought upon them by false estimates they have made of the value of things.

Remember that credit is money.

Creditors have better memories than debtors.

Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.

Buy what thou hast no need of and ere long thou shalt sell thy necessities.
