“I collect coins, specifically state quarters. I actually have a very hefty collection of state quarters and I have been collecting them since I was 7 years old. I have just been taking coins out of my mom’s wallet or been finding them hidden inside the couch, and I think I actually have all the states, except for maybe New Jersey. My collection is worth quite a bit of money. I also have a lot of very limited edition coins. I have some half dollars as well, and they are all categorically assigned a little compartment so I can keep track of them. When I’m stressed I run my fingers through the metal coins; it actually is very surprisingly stress-relieving.”
