Don’t expect Mike to check your math. He was a poli sci major in college.

It doesn’t sound like math was your worst subject to me kid.

Well, there goes their “start-up” enterprise!! What “brainstorm” will Mike have next??

Another start-up about to tank??!!

If the interest on your cash reserves was enough to cover payroll for two weeks that’s either an awful lot of cash reserves or a very small payroll.

Try sacking the loser in the garage.

Seems like a lot of “Scam & Sham” operations back then (and, now) are using those same techniques to “balance their books” and report their profitability (thinking the OrangeCrimeFamily).

at least they’ll get rid of kim’s ex in the garage

I really think Bernie the Madoff started this way.

This is what happens when you let your wife do so much of the hiring. She puts on payroll some of her ex-boyfriends who bag large salaries and like to play video games a lot.

So, skimping on accountacy was not a factor?

Have Kim check the math.

So ends the dot com bubble

Just how much interest can you earn on a shoestring business with apparently little cash?

Nine and math is her worst subject still makes her overqualified for most Fortune 500 accounting departments.

and the dot com bubble begins to burst.

Since Alex will get a full-boat scholarship to MIT, I’d trust her numbers.
