There are a lot of money superstitions out there, but I learned a new one when I went to the God of Wealth shrine the other day.
As we were taking a short rest and drinking sweet rice wine called amazake. I noticed there were a couple of money notes on the wall hanging upside down.
When I asked why this was, I received the following answer:
You should always place a bill with a person’s face on it with the person’s face facing down. If you leave the bills facing up in your wallet, they will want to peak out and leave while if they are facing down, the will want to stay buried inside your wallet. Placing all your bills face down helps you keep your money.
All the bills in my wallet are now facing downward - we'll see if this helps keep them in there

Dollar bills in my wallet? What bills????? I went to place them all upside down when I remembered that they are all in Piggy for the $20 Challenge! hahaha
Well, maybe in the future I can...
