My Niece and Her Business Ideas

Now thatErica's got all her "papers" organized, she wants to talk "business".

Her business ideas so far are lemonade sales, candy sales, hand-made comic books, rock pets, pictures, paintings and selling holiday cards which, she says, "should be a big seller for us". She wanted to do "Invader Zim" comics, but I gave her a quick lesson in copyright law, so that's off-limits.

I told her that she could help me with my Mary Kay stuff. Bad move! Now she wants her name included when I put my ad in her school music show program, and all my ads. "Now everyone all over the world will see my name!"

Now I'm hearing all about "Hot Shot Business" on the Disney website, and how she can keep cash flowing.
