A myth or ....?

In order to prevent people from killing innocent spiders, small spiders are called 'money spiders' and are believed to bring money and good luck. If one sees a spider where it could get killed, the spider should be moved to a window. If the spider gets killed in the process of moving, it will bring bad luck, and the person will suffer money loss. On the other hand, money will flourish in that person's pocket if the spider survives.
