The Lawnboy
It appears that this classification of employment has
"bit the dust", so to speak.......And this blog is not about
the "hunk" mowing a lawn in Beverly Hills.....
Years ago you could get small "chore" done for 50 cents.....
That was because the movie cost 25 cents......With a "buck"
you were a big man and even bought popcorn and some
Necco Wafers for your date.......
Now this little "chore" costs ten times as much......$50.00.....
That is because to get into a movie with a date and be
the "big spender", you have to spend at least $35-$40
of that money........
Life is great for the young who either get the $50 from a
lawn or from their parents......The problem is that this $50
does nothing in their future years.......
As you grow older, you find that your $50 is only worth
the original 25 cents........Pumps
