How Opening a Lemonade Stand Taught Me EVERYTHING I Know About Economics
"I'm not a businessman. I'm a business, MAN!"
Socialist Freeloader: “I don’t have $5 on me, can I pay you back?”
Me, Alpha Capitalist: “Here’s a supply and demand chart. You see where this line meets that line? This is why you deserve to die in poverty.”
*cries in libtard*
Socialist Freeloader: “But we’re neighbors! Our parents are friends. We go on playdates! You don’t trust me?”
Me, Alpha Capitalist: “I just incorporated as an LLC and I don’t have the margins to incur this risk. What I can do is lend you the money at a 16.5% interest rate and set up a payment plan that works with your weekly allowance. And don’t think that giving me your Pizza Lunchables will suffice as debt reimbursement. Cash is king, and I will need liquid assets if I’m going to franchise another stand three blocks away outside Ronny’s house.”
Socialist Freeloader: “I’m going to Lacey’s lemonade stand.”
Only 16.5%? The whole world's gone soft.
