RE: Bottom of the Bag Candy Income

in LeoFinance4 years ago

I remember the days where my siblings and I bought Guldens ( Dutch currrency pre Euro ) worth of candy - all kinds of different ones - each little one costing 5 cents. We were serious bagholders, back then, but emptied them almost as fast as we fillled them.

I believe this took place soon after receiving pocket money though. Our mom was very strict with sugar consumption so much so that we sometimes tried to eat from the sugarpot when she wasn't noticing.

Nice analogy!

I am better at holding and filling my bag of 'candies' these days. My body doesn't react to sugar too well ;^)

There are three types of people - buyers, sellers and eaters.

In the picture there are those little sprinkles. In Australia (where I am originally from) they make a thing called "fairy bread" which is white bread with butter and those sprinkles on top.

We didn't have white bread or sprinkles - we didn't even have white sugar. We did it with wholemeal bread and brown coffee sugar! :D

Mine either - but I have a full set of sweet teeth that don't seem to care.
