Rick Snyder, a 69-year-old resident of Manatee County, Florida, refused to sit still after he retired. Instead, he tended to one of his passions outside of work: caring for the feral cats living throughout his community.

69歲的佛羅里達州馬納提郡居民史奈德退休後，拒絕無所事事。反而關注他工作外的一項熱情：看顧生活在社區各處的流浪貓。

"I’ve always liked animals. I’ve been taking care of feral cats for years and I started noticing a lot of change laying around," Snyder said. "So I started picking it up and keeping track of it."

「我向來喜歡動物。我關照流浪貓多年，而且我開始注意到許多零錢散落四處，」史奈德說。「所以我開始撿零錢，並持續記錄存下的錢。」

Since having this idea more than 10 years ago, Snyder has managed to collect $21,495 in loose change weighing more than 1 metric ton.

從10多年前開始有這個點子以來，史奈德蒐集的零錢達2萬1495美元，累積的硬幣重逾1公噸。
