Is there a return address on it?

Only one way to find out

What does it say about me if I thought 45 cents was way more than a stamp actually costs?

Why would you have stamps which aren't forever stamps?

Once upon a time...I had an acquaintance who used to never put stamps on.

He would put the destination address as the return address and send w/o a stamp on it. The PO would automatically send "back" to the return address, which is where he wanted it to go...
....maybe one reason why the Postal Service is dying :P

On the other hand, I have bunch of old stamps lying around at home and whenever I use it, I can never get the exact amount.  So I always ended up using the stamp value that is more than I am supposed to use.

Federal crime to save 45 cents. Not really worth it.
