Pottage has got to taste better than lemon-pepper jerky. Shudder

Personally I think Baldo knows what’s being discussed and is jerking them around. Remember he’s a teenager. True, he probably does blow more than he saves, but he’s maintaining the image of the spendthrift child. Look how Baldo smiles at the reactions he’s gotten.

Ahhh, nice touché! I love the way Tia Carmen’s “I-told-you-so” facial expression shows. LOLs!

Reminds me a little like “King of the Hill” where Hank tries to teach his son Bobby about money. In one scene, he figures the boy was doing a shoe-shine business (when looking from behind) after giving him $1, but turned out Bobby got something to eat from the Dollar Value Menu from Taco Bell.

You only NEED $5 to by a “life-time supply” of lemon-pepper beef jerky. Yech! Nasty stuff!!

That’s a tricky question. If you ask “How would you spend it?” you’re giving the idea that he HAS to spend the money. It would be better to ask “What would you do with it?”
