I do. My money tree always had like 6 new leaves popping out so I don’t mind losing the ugly ones

I definitely recommend trying to figure out why this is happening first. If it’s not just one or two old leaves reaching the end of their life, you’ll want to know what’s causing it. I’d pull it out of the pot and get eyes on roots \& eval your conditions

What exactly to look for in the roots? And how to treat it?  
Plant newbie here, got gifted a money tree recently that is showing similar yellowing of leaves
