Q&A for How to Find Money

You don't need or have to be an adult to find loose change. As a child, you can always look in vending machines while you're visiting a place with one.

No. Since the money is on the floor of the bank, it immediately becomes the personal property of the bank owner. You may get in trouble if you tried to take it.
