    He asked for £2 to buy the CBeebies magazine last month at the local shop. Sure I said but i expect 50% interest per day until the debt was cleared. To you mind signing this agreement here son and i put the 1264622 APR value on it.

    Well the next day he failed to pay back and I had to add interest. I also left him a note under his pillow which of course cost me an extra £50 which I had to add to his bill.
    The next day he paid back 5p which I am afraid to say resulted in another charge. It's been a month now and he presently owes me £64833.29. Ive taken all of his toys, bedding etc and made him sell it buts he's still short. Now I'm not to sure wether to send in Ronnie and Reggie the ten year old twins from next door to have a word or whether he should be forced to sell his sister to a rich Arab.

    Suggestions please?
    Send him to Jeremy Kyle and pray that your not his real dad?

    I was on the phone to the kids mum once when the eldest was squealing in her ear I want to speak to Daddy. After 5 mins she asked why as she needed to keep talking to him as well, his reply was "I wanna bug him for money", he was 6 at the time!

    My first "business" was as a loan shark at school. I'd take my pocket money into school and rely on someone not bringing their lunch money in (had to pay 75cents each day).

    Loan them $1, and get $2 the next day. Failure to pay led to it doubling daily.

    If anyone attempted to not pay, I refused to lend to anyone else in that class - so their classmates turned on them until they paid their debts.

    Ah, that brings back fond memories.

    Take whatever you can get and invest it. You'll need the money to pay for the home he's going to put you in.

    I hope you scolded the lad and sent him off with a flea in his ear. I mean, fancy interrupting Pater at work!

    Anyways, if you were that good he'd be at boarding school.
