You are never supposed to put your purse on the floor because then you will lose money, not like literally lose money, but it’s going to like go away from you in the future…god I sound like a stupid person (saying so many “likes”).It’s not like throughout like but more of an action reaction thing – kind of like instant karma. This is because your purse symbolizes your money and something close to you and the floor is dirty and such so when you put it on the floor its almost saying that you don’t care about it therefore you will have bad luck with your money.
Although many people would rather it not be that way it is very common that money becomes a very important part of people’s lives and therefore taking care of it is very important. Therefore seeing the forms of folklore that forms around it is interesting to see the measures people formulate as folklore to make sure they protect it.
