Hello from Hong Kong

It has been a dry few days for me and finding loose change. That's why I don't make it my full time job.

I am in Hong Kong for a teaching gig and took about a five mile walkabout around the Times Square area and the shopping district. Granted, I was spending a lot of time looking around (up and horizontally) but I did not find a single loose penny on the walk.

I wonder if that is a supply-side or a demand-side issue?
