Bringing work home

“My four-year-old son has recently shown an interest in money. I’ll sometimes chat with him about the basics, but I wasn’t sure how much he was retaining until he offered to sell me a piece of his pizza for $100,000 at dinner last week. When I countered with $2, he told me I could ‘just get a loan’ to pay him the full $100,000.”
