Wow - it has been almost a year!

So much has happened! Of course!
Started a couple of businesses and having just so much fun!
Steep learning curve!
Of course, I am a home schooler - learning curves fascinate me. Almost a bit like Everest ...Why climb it? Because it is there!

Most fun from a home school point of view:
1. Created all the info for the Benefit of Homeschooling web site!
It will be at www.benefit-of-home-schooling.com and it will be live ... (cross your fingers!) by the end of October!

2. My daughters started their first business! They are 9 and 7!

I plan to blog the story for us all to see how it turns out.

It started with them watching me doing all that learning.

Then we discussed the concept of the Golden Goose and how spending money is a bit like killing the Golden Goose since that money could have been out earning more money instead.

Girls were fascinated!

We discussed the various business models that they could try and decided on vending.

So we ebay'd vending machines and listened to courses on how to do vending properly. We all learned a fortune!

Then we scoped out places we imagined we might put a machine and discussed how we'd go about asking for permission. We looked at other people's vending machines. It is quite astonishing how many places have them. I had been blind to them before that. We were all astonished at how many are around our small town.
We looked at the supplies. All quite dazzling.

The girls realised they needed seed money for this project.

Tommorrow I will tell you how they came up with the funds!
