"Count the/one's pennies" = đếm từng đồng -> nghĩa là chi tiêu cẩn thận.

Ví dụ
If you ever expect to be wealthy , you must not only learn to count straight, but you must learn to count your pennies.

A frugal (tiết kiệm) person is someone who counts his pennies. Every leader is going to need a lot of money to help him fulfil his vision. How is this money going to come? By being frugal!

You see him? He takes only bread this morning, as if he were French. The storm delays us and adds two days or three days to our journey, so he counts his pennies and worries. He must buy himself a new chemistry book, as well.

Because no one's sympathy (đồng cảm) comes winging towards you , you are someone with no name, a wanderer (kẻ lang thang) without provenance (nơi bắt đầu) and destination , you have to count your pennies and you have no friend to vouch (xác minh) for you.
