Current Events: Boy
Sells Enough Lemonade to Buy a Pony
A 7
year old boy from Queensland Australia saved up his earnings from selling
lemonade for two years, and eventually saved up enough to buy himself a pony.
He managed to save up $2,285, and now he has a white pony named Tom Boy. The
boy’s lemonade stand became a huge hit so he even had to bottle his lemonade in
order to produce enough of it. Many people would donate lemons to him and
sometimes people would even give him a hundred dollars to put towards his pony
savings.
I can’t
believe that a 7 year old managed to save over 2000 dollars just by selling
lemonade. He put hard work in to getting what he wanted, and he actually got it.
Just comes to show that if you really put your mind towards something you can
achieve what is thought to be nearly impossible.

That's crazy! I would spend the money as soon as i got it. I'm impressed with his self control and his determination. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome! I don't think I would have the self control to save my money for 2 years
ReplyDeleteThis is crazy! I think this is an inspiration to people everywhere that anyone at any age can persue a dream or make their mark on the world.
