An Easy $2.50

True Friend

Ian had one of his best friends come over to our house tonight, Chris Shay. As Ian was updating Chris on our project, without even asking, Chris proceeded to pull out his wallet and said, "I've got $5", then handed it over.  Naturally, he wanted us to trade up. He got 250 dirty CENTS we found on the ground in malls and gas stations while we got a crisp-ish $5 bill. It just did not seem fair. 

Chris claimed that since he would be along for the ride, and would see our ups and downs in the project, he figured there would be less at stake to trade when the amount of money is low. He was trying to convince us that he is now entitled to 1/28 of our earnings when the project is over. We figured that would be a total of $45,714.29, should we agree to it?

This doubling has given us the opportunity to give one CENT! YAY! 

On our way to step 11!

Now our plan is to get a few free items and sell them. We will do this for as long as we can while we figure out what to do in terms of buying low and selling high. Actually spending our CENTS seems like a big hurdle right now. Do we find antiques or do something crafty? If we buy something low like an old fan, how do we ensure we make our money back? Guess it is time for us to grow a little more.
