    Toddler Business Planning

    One for all you mumsnet fans.

    My little girl is just 3 and is appalled that her Daddy now has a proper contract and isn't going to be working at home 3 days per week and off the rest of the time.

    Her alternative business planning consists of:

    1. She will take Puss to market.
    2. She will swap him for some magic beans.
    3. She will steal Puss back.
    4. She will bring Puss and magic beans home.
    5. She will throw magic beans out of the window.
    6. She will climb magic beanstalk.
    7. The giant will be friendily and will give her a giant gold coin.
    8. We can buy food for dindins.
    9. Daddy doesn't have to work anymore.

    Unfortunately she failed to complete the correct template, and did not (to my satisfaction) identify a key risk around the friendiliness of the giant, so I had to reject the plan.

    "we can't buy that because we need the money for something else"

    "don't worry, we can get some more money from the money shop"
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

      I would expect a H&S assessment of climbing the beanstalk too not to mention an analysis the carbon footprint of this project.

      Apart from that it seems on a par with SKA.

        My two year old asked how many magic beans? What's the projection for this year, next year and the year after and what is her valuation?
        What happens in General, stays in General.
        You know what they say about assumptions!
