My son - the entrepreneur who found his market - but was shut down.

Thank you great story 👍

He was a lil hustler 😂😂😂😂😂
❤❤❤❤❤❤

Exactly. An idea and a market. ❤

She even dresses nice while preparing dinner.

My dad says theater like this and it sounds so funny!

He's so creative. You raised him right

That's what I'm talking about friend! Thanks for providing clarity ❤❤❤❤

Are you heating the canister with hot water? Then putting the food in the canister

In the 5th grade, my son made paper phones (like the ones we made back in the day) and sold those, along with my single serve packs of Famous Amos cookies and hug juices. I wondered why I was running out of snacks and juice so fast after having grocery shopped🤣.

Keep it up, love your content style!

That is the English teacher???!!!! I love her

❤❤❤ love this... It's in his Blood!!! 😂😂😂

This was a WONDERFUL story!!
Bless you Ms. James!!! You ARE one in a million!! Thank you for all that you do for children and adults EVERYWHERE!!!

😂😂😂 brilliant!

But I gotta say, I was so anxious watching u shake that boiling water in the flask. Eeeek, how did it not explode?

❤❤❤❤

He needs to learn how to make your food, sell it and split the profit with you so you can buy more. I bet baked goods would sell well

Thank you for sharing! This is exactly what we need to gain prominence again within our culture.

That boy was on to something. It’s in his blood. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Your son and my son would be buddies. I have gotten calls from two separate elementary schools (we moved states) about my son selling things at school. He first made a tackle box with different candy and sold them. Then he took orders for friendship bracelets and made those. Both times he was made to stop due to school policy :/ but I will give the second school credit, they tried to find an alternative business for him to engage in since they didn’t want to kill his entrepreneurial spirit. Right now we are planning on putting up a small family farm stand for my chicken and duck eggs, our veggie garden and my sons newly found cutting board business (he makes them by hand with his father in the wood shop) along with his own baked goods he bakes from scratch in my kitchen.
Love to hear my son is not alone in his dream to keep up his own business :)

Why didn't he use the money he made to buy the lunch?

Like someone else said, your son was a little hustler 😮😅!

My little brother in the 2nd grade me 6th, came to me one day and asked me if I had any items I didn’t want anymore, so I gave him like maybe 5 items and then one day at school I saw kids at recess with my stuff, even stuff i didn’t give my brother he apparently went back into my room and grabbed whatever he thought I didn’t want . And sold them to the kids at school. I was so upset but I didn’t ask for anything back.

I guess I was too bc I used both my great vocabulary & intelligence, as well as my artistic talent, to sell A's, B's, & C+'s in midterm and finals essays in your own handwriting (this was in the 80s when we still used cursive & no computer). Basically I forged your writing by studying a sample of your writing style & knew what each teacher wanted in an essay. I also advised that if your teacher was used to C & D work, anything above a B- would be suspicious. I made A LOT of money every semester. And I also got to feel good about making sure my classmates graduated on time 😂😂
If I tried that now, I'd be arrested 😂

Alright👍🏽😂

Love your channel 😁 great story !

❤❤❤

Back when I was in middle school I used to buy the big bags of blow pops at the dollar store & would sell them @ school for 50¢ each. I did that for most of 7th grade & made enough to buy myself the pair of Nikes I wanted that my parents couldn't afford

😏

Awesome

My son bought multi packs of gum at the dollar store and sold each piece separately.

❤

I bought boxes of candy and sold them at school made enough to go to Disneyland with my high school band three years in a row. My sister and foster sister even helped me with selling candy. I even had my family help me make gift basket that I sold raffle tickets for to raise money.

Thank you for teaching us from your heart about all that you know!! ♥️

❤

👏👏👏💖💖💖

Be proud mama. Great job. The kids these day in my daughter's high school are always selling baked goods and candies. Even creating there little labels on the boxes. Side hustle is the new norm. I love it because these kids also help there parents with the money. Please give us your Recipe. Take care.
