First $100

$100 takes longer than they think. Around dollar 40 they'll want to quit. The thing stopped being fun, the novelty is gone. Don't rescue. Don't slip them $60. The whole milestone lives in the gap between dollar 40 and dollar 100, which is exactly where most adults would also quit if no one was watching. Let your kid push through.

1. 01Track every dollar as it comes in. Running tally is the point.
2. 02At dollar 40, when they want to quit, don't slip them money. Ask what isn't working.
3. 03Try one new spot or one new pitch at the halfway mark. Same approach won't finish the job.
4. 04Cash out at $100. Hold the pile. The pile matters.
