Grades K - 6 : Went to the VANS store and raped their free stickers box and sold them at school for 10 cents to 80 cents depending on sticker size and florescents. Took everyone else until I was in 6th grade to figure out they were free.
Grades 7 - 8 : Sold candy door to door. Made $40 - $70 a day. This is back in 1982 or so... Back then, that is what a college graduate made ($70 a day). My dad was starting to wonder if he should stop working for Boeing.
Grades 9 - 12 : Bought candy at a liquor store on the way to school and resold it for 50% to 300% profit. Created blowguns out of 1/4" tubing and sewing needles with a pompom glued to the end. Sold them for $1 for the tube (approx. 25 cents) and $2 for a pack of 20 darts (approx. 50 cents). Pimped beer for a premium for others with no balls to pimp it for themselves.
Graduated but was pressured to go into the market force and did well. Became convienced that being a good manager was like running your own business.
2003 : realized that working for others sucks donkey cock and started selling porn.
