About this episode

Jan 30 Grade School Entrepreneur by Steve Adams

 Looking back, I guess I was destined to be an entrepreneur. In 5th grade, I learned that while using stiff fencing wire, I could build a horseshoe-shaped frame with interwoven rubber bands and a washer. If you wound it up and slipped it under you on a wooden desk, a slight shift in weight would make the washer spin. The vibration against the wood created the most wonderful, realistic, and reverberating rude sound you ever heard. I would make up a batch of them and sell them for 25 cents each, ice cream money. One afternoon, a petite front row girl named Cassie decided to use her unit while the teacher had her back turned Cassie shifted slightly, the machine roared, and the classroom erupted in laughter. The teacher turned around glare to Cassie and told her it was the most unladylike thing she had ever heard. Cassie was ashamed. The teacher was mortified, but as for me, I laughed until tears in my eyes, and continued to make them until I graduated elementary school.  Sponsored by the Caylor Group Financial Planning.
