Money is all. Money is power. Money is you. Money is the city. Money is life. Money is the owner. Money is the manager. Money is a tree. Money is a friend. Money is an enemy. Money is pasta. Money is pain. Money is security. Money is the wall. Money is health. Money is donuts. Money is grass.


Her eyes were as wet as the river. The floor was as dirty as the city. The boy was as sweet as a snickers. The knife was a pointy as a perfectly sharpened pencil. The assignment was as dull as watching paint dry. The picture was as crooked as life. His smile was as wide as the moon and as bright as the sun. The pain was as bad as getting stabbed in the throat three times. The night was as calm as a tranquil hippie. FSUSECURE wifi is as slow as a snail. Greed is as evil as the devil.

Some of the favorite metaphors/similes were:
Money is the manager, The knife was a pointy as a perfectly sharpened pencil, Money is security,The picture was as crooked as life, Money is an enemy, Money is all

  1. I love the money metaphors! Money is power, money is life, money is all of that and more. You can't live without money, its the root of all evil.

  2. "Money is the city" and "Her eyes were as wet as the river" were my two favorite metaphors. I liked the idea of money is the city because that can say a lot. Money creates a city, the buildings, the sidewalk, the peoples jobs who live in that city. Its the constant commotion and flow of money which in fact IS the city. I liked the second one because it seemed very visual, I can picture the girls eyes.

  3. My favorite metaphor of yours was "Money is life." I liked this one the most because I felt like it had more than just one meaning. Without money there is very little you can do in life. Everything costs money. Just look at homeless people. They have nothing simply because they have no money; as sad as that is. Money also allows people to do more than as they earn more.
