Memories Of My Child's Lemonade Stand

I was going over some of my old
Posts,
looking for ideas I could write about.
When I read my post
The Value Of Money.
I had to laugh.
I like this story so much that I want to
re-Post
it.
It's from
June 14th, 2015.

If you are an avid reader of my
Blog,
you know that when my children were little I tried to teach them the value of money.

If you're not,
please read the
Post;
"And The Pursuit Of Happiness!"

Then you will know.

I wrote this email,
on my cell phone,
to my
Sister-in-Law
while on my morning walk.

So please excuse sentence structure,
spelling,
and all around grammar.

Hi,
  I'm on my walk right now so excuse any incorrect spellings.
  I was walking past a kid's corner lemonade stand and it reminded me of a time when Jamie set up a lemonade stand on her own. She did the whole thing on her own. Making the stand herself and mixing up the lemonade. She was around 9 years old at the time I believe.
When I came home from work, I saw the sign she had made and it read "Lemonade, One Glass $10."
   I asked Jamie, "How do you think you'll be able to sell lemonade at that price?"
  She told me, "I only need to sell one. That's it."
  So I bought a glass for $10 and she ran off to her friends, smiling the biggest smile.
   After she had left, I noticed that I had just paid $10 for lemonade I already owned and that she had left everything in the front yard for me to clean up!
   Now that's Business Savvy!

At least I know one of my kids understands what the value of money is
and how to manipulate her
Dad!

She can still do it to this day!

This is,

I Have Not Purchased Land On The Moon Yet!

 That is my story and I am sticking to it!

I am really surprised that no one has commented on my post It Is Fun To Find Money. I guess nobody has tried it and found any cash! If you didn't get anything try doing it for your friends and family.
