Greg's plan to get rich fails from "summary" of Diary of a Wimpy Kid (Diary of a Wimpy Kid #1) by Jeff Kinney
So, I came up with a plan to get rich. I figured if I could just get a little bit of money from everyone at school, I'd be set. I called my plan the "Money Making Scheme." The idea was simple - I'd offer my classmates a service, and they'd pay me for it. It was foolproof. Or so I thought. I started by offering to do people's homework for a fee. I was convinced that my classmates would jump at the chance to have someone else do their work for them. But it turns out, I was wrong. Nobody wanted to pay me to do their homework. I couldn't believe it. My plan was off to a rocky start. Next, I decided to sell "magic" tricks to my classmates. I thought they'd be willing to shell out some cash for a cool trick or two. But once again, my plan backfired. Nobody was interested in buying my tricks. It was starting to look like my get-rich-quick scheme was doomed to fail. In a last-ditch effort, I even tried selling my services as a personal trainer. I figured everyone wanted to get in shape, right? Wrong. Nobody wanted to pay me to help them work out. It was official - my plan to get rich had completely flopped. I had to face the fact that my scheme had been a total disaster. I was back to square one, just a regular old kid without a penny to my name. But hey, at least I learned a valuable lesson. Getting rich quick isn't as easy as it seems.
