Description

In today’s Pocket Change, Dave takes you to a small town in Germany where a nursing home came up with one of the simplest and smartest ideas ever: a fake bus stop.


Designed to help protect residents with dementia, this imitation bus stop became an unexpected lifesaver, giving comfort, familiarity, and calm to people who needed it most. Other countries copied it, families loved it, and the story has since become a brilliant example of creativity and compassion in action.


It’s clever, it’s heartwarming, and it’s exactly the kind of story Money2Byrne loves:

a little bit of genius… hidden in plain sight.


Listen now to hear how a simple bench and a sign made a world of difference.
