What does a typical six year old do to earn money?

What does a typical six year old do to earn money? Most would offer to do some extra work around the house, maybe sell some cookies or lemonade. Not mine, he sets up a light show in his room and tries to charge money to enter his room to see the show. He has this big plan of taking over the backyard this winter and asking “Mr. Gates” (Bill Gates) to donate some money so he can purchase more “stuff” so it draws a bigger crowd to make more money. I asked him why would Mr. Gates donate money to you. He says “well I plan to use the money to pay for the stuff and any extra could help sick kids or families” in the area. What a great heart, I hope he continues to think that way when he gets older.

This is just fantastic Cam! You have made really great improvements in the show over the past weeks.
I can't wait to see what you do to the backyard when the snow melts. If you need 3 million candlepower lights, let me know.
Bill Gates should give you lots of dollars for your show and your early activities in philanthropy.

I love it and think it is a great plan. Can't wait to see the outdoor presentation (Griswold in the making!) Well Done Cameron!
