A Good Lesson

Here's a good lesson for older kids ( Ages 40 and older)
around here.

You just got a job for one month 30 days.

You have two choices on how much you want to be paid.


A -$1,000,0000.00 thats one Million

or

B - 1 cent the first day, 2 cents the second day,
4 cents the third day, each day double for 30 straight days!

Which will you choose? Gosh that one million bucks looks
pretty good!

Well lets look at B

Day 1: $.01

Day 2: $.02

Day 3: $.04

Day 4: $.08

Day 5: $.16

Wow, thats some chunck change!

If you have children ,
tell them to start savings,
start planning their retirerment
when their young. Tell them not to make mistakes like
some Baby Boomers(Candy's) have done!

They are the future, steer them in the right direction!
