Funny Moneygami

Recently Updated6
Perhaps this is further evidence that I spend too much time on the Internet (if that's possible). While cruising around I discovered Moneygami on a site called Fun Fever.

It's so clever (although I feel bad for the guy who was made into a potted plant). I think Thomas Jefferson er I mean Alexander Hamilton looks especially dashing. The hat is a much nicer alternative to the powdered wig. And look at The Queen. So lovely in her little chapeau. I couldn't quite figure out who made these, but I applaud them.

UPDATE: You guys are so funny! Your comments are making me laugh!

A couple:

    I think Lincoln would have been very puzzled about the straw sticking out of his head.

    Not an annoyed cashier. And AMUSED cashier. At least...I'd be, were it me being handed the bills.

    These are great! So much imagination and talent out there!

    Before the advent of the internet, we would never have discovered these little treasures.

    I'm glad I can enjoy your treasure finding! Thank you so much!

    Thanks for sharing! I wish I could come up with some genius idea like that to make money off of....the person I envy the most in that aspect is the person who invented the wacky noodles that you use in the pool. My favorite moneygami has to be Queen Elizabeth...fabulous!

    I wonder if this costs more to make than to sell: $20 for a folded $100 bill!

    I guess it's obvious now that i spend money too fast to even examine it. who knew alexander hamilton was so square jawed and handsome.
