Dogwalking Isn't Always As Easy As It Sounds

When I started dogwalking it wasn’t all smooth sailing. I’m glad that I bought dog treats, it helped with when I first met them. There were two dogs named Sam and Rusty. Rusty didn’t know where to turn, what direction, or just plain where to go. It took a few times to get him to learn. Sam was so stubborn, he wouldn’t get out of people’s yards. He would even lay down and just stay there for like five minutes. He ended up paying me twice what I had asked for (which was fifty cents). I’ve ended up knowing the dogs very well, and they love it whenever I come over. So if they don’t like you at first, just wait and they will love you.  

I’m really sorry to say this, but Sam died a few months ago.

Make sure you remember to leave me your story as a comment. I would love to hear it.

How Your Birthday Could Help You Start a Business

You might have a great idea for a business. Let’s say you had a great idea for well… cinnamon peanut butter. But you don’t know where you could ever get the money. Well, your birthday is coming up soon. But you don’t even think about that because you want a video game. Well, if you really think it could be a business, then you’ll be willing to put in some money. If you do make money then you will be able to buy the video game and more. So your birthday comes up and you get $150. You decide that you want to do the business. You go online and order 30 jars for $60. You go to the store and get all the peanut butter, sugar, and cinnamon that you need. You add all of the money you spent up, 60+15=75. 150-75=75. You have $75 left. You make the peanut butter, and sell each jar for $5. You sell all of the jars. 30x5=150, 150+75=225. You have enough money to buy the video game and keep on running the business.

Mom (the disclaimer lady) here: This story is an example to show you that you might need to think differently about your money. There's no guarantee you'll sell all the jars at $5, and most places have laws about producing food in a home kitchen to sell. Check the laws for your area.
