Jonathan was a collage student participating in business. He has always wanted to start a business with his best friend Connor. Jonathan wanted to start an arcade, but Connor wanted to start a water park. They argued for at least 3 hours, but finally settled on a water park. The only thing stopping them was the cost of buying the land. The total for the land was $30,000, and they had no way to pay for it. They wound up saving $1,000 a month for 30 months. They were finally able to pay for the land! They built the water park and on the first day of business, they made $6,000! In the end, they were able to buy new houses, and keep running the water park. Today, Jonathan and Connor are millionaires!
