Jon and John are businessmen from Florence, South Carolina. They want to make money, just like everyone else. They decided that they would invest money with different investment options to make more money, and the loser would have to pay for the other to eat at Victors (the highest class restaurant in town). They each had $1000 in allowance and 10 years to make the money work

Jon decided to invest in Stocks from the great company of Chatter ( not related to Twitter in any way), because Chatter was growing rapidly, and he thought that the risk that he would make or lose money would be lower. He went to a stockbroker, who helped him decide on what and how to invest in. He decided to invest it all $1000 in Chatter, paid quarterly, and waited 10 years, letting the return from each quarter enter back into the equity he owned, making a new share whenever there was enough to do so in returns.

John took a different approach to the

entire challenge. He took all $1000 and

split it up into 10 piles of $100 and

buried all of it into the ground to make

10 money trees. He decided that he

would wait for 10 years and he would

cut down the trees and they will have

leaves of green, dollar bill green that is.

John is not the sharpest knife in the drawer if

you couldn't tell.
