And then I found 10 dollars.

Provide one story where ending it with "And then I found 10 dollars" does not vastly improve the story. It just isn't possible!

So, there's a man crawling through the desert...

 

[edro]

blah blah blah...
The man said he would kill me if all I had was $10.
I checked my wallet and ....

Lol. Good one! But you have to admit, that makes the story pretty dang funny, and vastly superior to wondering why an idiotic murderer would use that as his criteria. I think you lose!

I live in Africa and have no money, food and also walk 10 miles just to get some dirty/unfiltered water. On the way back home from my 10 mile walk thru a desert I found 10 bucks.

You have to use "and then I found 10 dollars" (as specified) as it just sounds better. You lose!

true story I went to the bank to deposit $10 and when I got the tube back I looked in the envelope for the receipt....

Define "vastly improve." I could tell a boring story with that ending.

My brother asked me if I he could borrow some money to run to the store for milk and eggs. I told him no problem, I have some cash. I opened my wallet and then I found ten dollars.

Shitty story. No point to it. It isn't a punchline. It is a factual statement. It is pretty lame.

The U.S. switched its legal currency to yuan. And then I found 10 dollars.

So after a night of anal raping I woke up and found a note that said: "Something for your trouble".

I looked underneath and then I found 10 dollars.

I was having my house foreclosed because I missed a single mortgage payment. Mr. Potter did not care for any of my excuses. I loved living in Bedford Falls but it appears I was screwed. I tried collecting money from others as I knew I could pay them back in the future. Sadly I was a couple of bucks short. Before I vacated my house, my wife left with my kids because I could not provide. My life insurance policy was about the only thing I had of value, I was better off dead. I turned over my key and Mr. Potter's goons kicked me to the curb, I stumbled and tripped. Then I found 10 dollars.

Though I dreaded the thought, I knew I had to force myself to go back to the burned-out pile of debris that used to be our family home. Yes, we had lost everything, but I still had hope that we could rebuild somewhere once I located and recovered the box that we hid in the basement wall so many years ago. That box would make the difference for all of us.

Our neighborhood was unrecognizable. I slipped through the police line that cordoned off the area by waiting until a shift change at 3 AM. I was counting on being able to figure out which charred pile was ours, and removing the box without making enough noise that the patrol would be alerted to my presence.

I never thought I would be happy that our neighbor decided to paint his home lime green last year, but there was just enough left visible for me to pick out his house, therefore knowing ours was the next one on the right. I hid behind a woodpile and waited for the patrol to pass by before starting my recovery effort. My tools: a crowbar and a small Mag-lite. It was all I dared to carry but even so, if I got caught I would be shot for looting before they even asked to see my ID.

Fortune was smiling on me as I saw that the home had collapsed in the other direction, leaving me clear access to the hiding place in the wall. I wouldn't even have to clear any debris, and this greatly improved my chances of getting out without being caught. Pulling out the stone that covered the box, I said a silent prayer of thanks that our box was there.

The box that would give us a new start. The box that held the $200,000 of gold and silver so we could bribe our way past the fence that kept us in Sector R. so we could go where people still could grow food.

I pulled out the box from the hole in the wall, being careful not to drop it from the weight. It was lighter than I remembered.

Too light. Very, very much too light.

I crouched down behind the wall and held the Mag-lite in my mouth, with my heart pounding. Somehow that gold had to be there. It HAD to be. It was the only thing that could save us.

I opened the lid.

And then I found 10 dollars.

A story that already ends with "and then I found 10 dollars"

"I was at a toll bridge and didn't have any money in my wallet to pay. I looked under my seat and then I found 10 dollars. And then I found 10 dollars."

Late one night I started talking with this scantily clad well endowed woman......I had already committed myself to try to get her to go back to the motel room with me...all of a sudden it hit me like a rock...why was she interested in me a fat 50+ year old bald man????
I knew at that moment she was working undercover and I was the person she was out get......so I pulled my wallet out of my pants and opened it slowly and looked inside....I looked at her and I look at my wallet........I showed her my empty wallet and then I reached inside my pant pocket and then I found $10.......


on a side note that $10 saved me a trip to Jail on solicitation charges.......

A man came up to my child and I whilst we were playing in the park. He pulled a gun and threatened to kill my son if I didn't give him some money. I checked my pocket and wallet and found nothing. He shot my son in the head making it explode like a melon and then shot me in both kneecaps and ran away. I was lying on the floor waiting for someone to help me.......
