“It’s raining men” and “It’s raining cats and dogs,” may just be figures of speech. But that isn’t the case as far as the term “It’s raining money” is concerned. An unidentified Japanese man felt he had simply too much cash and wanted to share his stock market earnings. So he launched 1 million yen ($12, 345 Cdn.) from a tower in central Japan on Tuesday. He threw U.S. $1 bills and 100-yen bills from shopping bags onto the streets and sidewalks as people raced after them. “I have too much money. I don't need it,” he said. “I wanted to give some back to the world.” Too bad Donald Trump doesn’t feel the same way. That’s one money-throwing party we at S.B.T. would like to be a part of.

Wow, what a generous man throwing $12 off a building. WTF? Hell, I'd throw $20 in turkish lyra just to have fun. I'm not quite sure about the exchange rate but I think $20 would be about 20 million turkish lyra.
