A childhood belief about money

Someone gave me a dollar when I was little, and I sat in the living room playing with it. I asked my ma if it was true that there were four quarters in a dollar, and she told me that I was correct.

I tore the dollar in half and tried to shake the quarters out, as if dollar bills were envelopes for quarters.
