Trump's New Tv Show

It's called "The Apprentice". I like it a lot better than I thought I would.

This is the premise of the show:8 men and 8 women vie for a job as the president of one of Trump's companies. Every episode, there is a business related challenge. The losing team has to meet in the boardroom to defend themselves, and then 3 people are chosen, those three have one more chance to defend themselves, and then one is fired.

Last night they had to sell lemonade. Each team had $250 startup capital and instructions to sell as much lemonade as possible. The women started off badly, it was a real gong show. But as we all know the gong show made quite a bit of money for a few years. The women ended up with $1200, and the men ended with only $500.

It seemed to me that this possibly wasn't the most even challenge, but that's how the cookie crumbles. If people are more willing to pay $5 for a lemonade from an attractive woman than $1 from some guy, that's just too bad. Realistically, I think that they probably sold the same number of glasses, but the women had priced theirs so much higher it was no contest.

One of the guys, sensing that they needed to do better tried to sell a cup for $1000 to a guy (who obviously could afford it) on the premise that he would have a great story to tell his buddies about the time he paid $1000 for a glass of Trump lemonade.

I pose the question to all of you: If you had $200 million, would you spend $1000 on a glass of lemonade just to be able to tell the story?
