AIBU?

To think I'm going to be a millionaire?

My right palm has been itching all evening and two friends have regaled me with the old superstition that it means you're going to come into money (itchy left palm is money having to be paid out, right is money coming in). I am not superstitious in the slightest but it did make me think.
So (just for fun) has anyone ever had an itchy right palm and miraculously come in to money?
Thinking my life could be about to change

I found a Euro in the pub garden. (am in the UK).

Palms (on either hand) weren't itchy.

Probably down to Brexit.

Atopic dermatitis is vastly more likely.

As a teen I picked up a 5p off the floor of a bus and, to my horror, found that it was covered in an unknown liquid.

My palms itch when I think about it. Does that count? (not envy)

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:19

Both of those comments made me laugh
Hope you didn't spend your euro all at once? Definitely Brexit responsible for that, somehow.

Cirrhosis? I mean or money. Probably money.

By what mechanism do you expect to become a millionaire?
Do you do the lottery? Have a rich relative with a bad cough?

Do tell?

HaroldsSocalledBluetits · 22/04/2019 01:24

I've got an itchy right tit. What does that mean?

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:33

@HaroldsSocalledBluetits ill fitting bra?

OP posts:

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:34

@70sWitch who knows, I just figure if it's superstitious it's like magic, no? So I'm guessing the pile of cash will just appear before me. Sounds completely plausible to me 🤷‍♀️

@HaroldsSocalledBluetits or toast crumbs down your cleavage?

LillithsFamiliar · 22/04/2019 01:36

I thought an itchy right hand meant you were going to meet someone Maybe I've been so focused on looking for people to meet, I've never noticed the money coming in . ..

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:39

@LillithsFamiliar ooh that would be exciting...not sure OH would be all too chuffed, though
And I suggest you check your bank accounts quick smart! Who knows how much is piled up in there whilst you're out with your itchy palm sniffing out Mr or Mrs Right

My palm always itches itches a few days before I get paid

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:43

@rejected2012 with all the jokey comments I can't actually tell if you're being serious or not?

OP posts:

rejected2012 · 22/04/2019 01:54

I am being serious. If my palm itches at an unexpected time , I will get money . Same thing happens with my eyes . If my top right eye lid twitches , I will get good news and if it's the bottom eye lid I will get good news that will make me cry of joy and vice versa .
A friend once caught my eye twitching and said I was a witch 😁😁

plantbased · 22/04/2019 01:58

@rejected2012 that's interesting I've never heard of the eye thing before. I once had a twitch in my right eye for 3 months. Nothing particularly good or bad happened that I recall other than I was exceptionally irritated by the constant twitch. I named it Richard Twitch

So it sounds like there's a chance I could be wadded imminently - you've made my day

brizzlemint · 22/04/2019 02:02

I've got itchy feet so can I have some of your millions to go travelling please ?

rejected2012 · 22/04/2019 02:03

I find it irritating too and it makes me anxious when my left eye starts twitching. You are probably slowly being introduced to the twitchy eye circle . Next time pay attention when it starts twitching 😁😁

rejected2012 · 22/04/2019 02:04

@brizzlemint 😂😂😂 that made me laugh

plantbased · 22/04/2019 02:04

@brizzlemint sure it's not just athletes foot? Get a signed doctors note confirming no foot yuckiness for me and I'll send a cheque your way

My palm itches when I want to slap someone, although I resist the temptation.

Isn’t one itchy palm meaning you are going to get money, and when the other itches you are going to lose it? I can’t remember if it’s left or right though!

My left ones itchy but I’m chronically poor so I assumed I just had another bill coming out!

plantbased · 22/04/2019 23:02

Yep left is money being paid out and right is money coming I , apparently. However my palm is still itchy, and I'm still broke

Theninjawhinger · 23/04/2019 00:18

In that case maybe I owe you money
