Ok, how many of you have ever tried to pay your bills with “a job well done”? Yeah, I thought so.
I paid my kids $1 for every A or E and fined them $1 for every F or U. They usually came out ahead because they never wanted to lose money after the first time they had to pay me. It was a small price for me to pay so I didn’t have any arguments about doing homework.

When my son was on the seventh grade basketball team, we paid him for every point he scored. By the end of the year, he was eight inches taller.

Why should I go to school? To get a better job. Why do I need a better job? To make more money.
