The Business Tycoon
The writer of this next post wasn’t someone who lost his pencils; no, he was the person who had figured out how to benefit from the fact that other people lose their pencils. In fact, he had a surprisingly sophisticated system worked out whereby he would profit off other people’s forgetfulness and hunger.
Seriously, this is very impressive for a 5th grader. He had figured out that people were willing to pay him for something that they needed—a pencil. But he didn’t just hoard that money for himself; he used it to buy candy because he had figured out that people were willing to pay him even more for something that they wanted. Seriously, if he had kept up that level of hustle and entrepreneurial spirit, he could be making serious money these days.
