Last week I asked the question”If someone walked up to you and handed you $10 with the stipulation you had to make someone\u2019s life better with it what could you do?”<\/p>\n

The inspiration came from Chris Guillebeau who wrote “The $100 Startup<\/a>” which talks about starting a business for a hundred dollars or less.\u00a0 I was interested in what people could do with ten dollars to change someone’s life.\u00a0 Ten bucks seems like a small amount of money to make a big change but I wanted to make people think deeper.<\/p>\n

Why think deeper?\u00a0 Because many people will do for others what they will not do for themselves.\u00a0 You might go buy a burger from a drive thru for someone who is hungry but would consider that splurging if you did it yourself.\u00a0 I wanted to make people think about how they could make a difference in someone’s life with $10 so you could maybe see how you could change your own life or circumstances with the same amount of money.<\/p>\n

Fortunes have been made on little startup money.\u00a0 Lives have been changed with a kind word and a helping hand with no money at all.\u00a0 Take ten dollars and in the next week go and make a difference with it in your life.\u00a0 Start a business, make a donation, or start that retirement account you have been meaning to get to.\u00a0 Make a commitment to go out and do something with a ten dollar bill during the next seven days!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
