Big Dreams

"Mama," my twelve-year-old son said. "I'm going to buy a yacht."


I looked at the kid. "Really? You're going to need a lot of money to do that!"


"How much?" he asked.


"At least a million dollars," I said.


He didn't believe me, so he had to check it out for himself. He found a nice yacht. It looked like this:

Do you know how much it cost? $99, 950,000.00


"Dude. That's way out of your price range," I said.


"It sounds like a rip-off," he said. "But I still want a yacht."


He walked over to the phone and called one of his buddies. They had a conversation regarding the yacht. After he was done, he came up to me and said, "We've got it all figured out. We're going to split the cost. And if that doesn't work, we're going to buy a cruise ship. Those have to be less expensive than yachts!"
