Trump and Buffett






There were a couple of little entreprenuers is my driveway this morning, selling hot chocolate. Araceli and Ruby got Freestone set up with a big jug of warm cocoa before they left for school, then Free and Jake set up shop, hoping to make a fortune. As fortunes for five-year-olds go, they made a killing with a total of $4.67. That is not bad for having only three cutomers. Brianna, Michelle and Coco were very generous. Truth be told, the boys would have been happier with 5 dimes than one measly dollar! Freestone's favorite part was putting the money in the special wallet Aunt Carlene gave him. Jake's favorite was pouring the hot chocolate. They made a great team. Free wanted me to call more people to come over. See, he's developing marketing skills already. I think these guys should be competitors on the next Apprentice. Can you imagine what they'd say when they saw Donald Trump's hair? They might get kicked off the show the minute they fall on the ground laughing, "Look at his crazy hair! It looks like a rooster!" Maybe I'll wait until next year to let them try out. Give them time to develop some tact to go along with their amazing entreprenurial skills!

Only $1 for 1/4 cup of lukewarm chocolate from 2 of the cutest kids on the planet.

That's a good deal in any book. :)

What a great example of capitalism at its finest. Too bad, your president Obama will raise taxes for small business owners and create a socialist society.

How fun to have an anonymous! A little socialism never hurt anyone- can you say health care for poor people??? Shocking, I know.

Anyway, looks like their first customer looks like she was paying NOT to have to drink the cocoa.

It might help if you didn't live on a dead end. You know what they say location, location, location. Looks like they had a great time.
