Here is a picture, I can try again if this one isn't good enough, it is hard taking pictures with my kindle.

Looks like cold damage....
If it's cold damage it should be fine in the long run, but if it stops putting out new growth there's something else wrong with it.
And pachiras love as much light as you can give them. Don't worry about putting it in direct sunlight through a window as I doubt the sun is intense enough this time of year to cause leaf burning.
Good luck with it!
It's funny as these past 2 weeks gardenweb has been full of pachira problems! Something about purchasing them in January I guess..

Please look at the top post for update.

It should be completly fine. It's just that cold damaged leaves Don't always show that they have damage right away. The affected leaves will shrivel and turn a different colour and thus you can cut them off. Then new growth should appear pretty quick.
I wouldn't fret over it seems fine and should comeback quite nicely in time.

So I should just cut the affected leaves off altogether? It is pretty much all of them now, as you can see from the picture up top, the whole thing turned brown-ish

Don't do any cutting. Let those cold-damaged leaves fall off on their own.

There is *no way* that the light coming through a window this time of year has done any damage. Just be patient and allow the plant to recover on its own.

It will be months before it looks full again.

I wouldn't cut off all of them, just the severly wilted/shriveleld and brown ones as the leaves can still give the plant some nourishment

Or just do what Josh says, He knows a lot more things then me

Okay, thanks for the help. I did give it a little water today, I made sure it drained all the way out, and I put rocks on top of the soil, and there is a tiny layer of water, and rocks that sit higher than the water at the bottom of the pot so the cup that it came in sits on top of tbe rocks. I read somewhere that this helps humidify the plant. Easily removed if you guys don't think I should have either or. I also read cold damaged plants like a humidifier somewhat near by while it recovers. Is my anita plant good enough (produces humidity) or should I get out my humidifier?

I'd personally just let it dry out for the time being. The chance of root-rot increases because the plant doesn't have leaves to conduct transpiration.

If there are rocks on top of the potting mix, I would remove them. They will slow the drying of the mix.

Here is my follow up.

All of the leaves except two were completely damaged and fell off... the two that survived were tiny, but now are very large.

And over the last week, there has been new life sprouting!

I am so happy that this Pachira is a fighter, Thank you guys for the help with what to do to ensure it's survival, I will post an update when it is thriving very well

I also have a question... when it starts getting warmer, should I keep it in it's current location? Or how far from the window should it be? Thanks!

Very cool!
I had a feeling it would re-sprout, and sure enough it is!
Keep the plant as close to the window/light source as possible. If you can put it in outdoor *shade*, it will really thrive. During the Summer, increase fertilization.

If the money tree is anywhere in close proximity to the heater, that will do it. This plant can handle low light. Put a tray of pebbles, Just enough to cover the top surface, & add water to the plate. Fill water up to the pebbles, and set the pottery plant sitting on top of it to dehumidify the heat during g winter time
