This morning before dropping my nephew to school, I realised I had a dollar note in my pocket (change from buying newspapers earlier). Rather than put it in my wallet, I asked him if he wanted it. The following was our conversation.Me: Do you want a dollar?
L: Yeah
Me: Do you want me to autograph it?
L: Yeah
(He watches as I sign my name on it)
Me: Hold on to that. Today it's one dollar, but when I'm famous it will be worth millions.
L: Great! I'll frame it. And I can get people to touch it.
Me: How much will it cost to touch it? Lots of people will want to.
L: $100 per touch.
Me: Nah. At least $1,000.
L: Yeah, but when I'M famous it will cost 500 million dollars just to SEE it.
Moral of the story: Don't think big or bigger. Think biggest.
Sweet, how old is this nephew, little budding business person?
