Nicholas Pinto may be one year away from high school, but he’s already doing big business.
The 13-year-old says he’s always loved scooters, but was frustrated by how quickly the wheels would break.
“As you develop your skills, like landing on the scooter harder when you’re going off of a ramp, what you want is for the parts not to break,” says Pinto, who lives with his parents and three siblings in Cranford, New Jersey. He says he was spending a lot of money replacing the wheels every few weeks.
“I was saying, ‘Wow, this can’t be!’ I was trying so many wheels, I thought I better make my own and help the world,” says Pinto, who enjoys competing in scooter competitions.

I guess you can reinvent the wheel after all.
You didn't do that, kid. Without government roads you couldn't have a scooter. Now give all your money to the government! /s
HE DIDN”T DO IT ON HIS OWN PEOPLE!

and I cant even get my kids to do the dishes
I called the cell phone company and turned off their cell phones, cancelled all the credit cards, and took the wifi router with me to work today
Do you think they’ll notice?
Also, instead of making dinner for tonight I put a loaf of bread and some peanut butter on the table with a note that said “dinner”
” He’s a good candidate for Georgia Tech when he gets older.”
Are they still the “Rambling Wrecks” of my Daddy’s day?
lol
My SIL was talking about her late-twenty-something year old ‘kids’ who are each talking about buying a house. They have always lived at home, pay for nothing, get their credit cards paid off by mommy and daddy each month and have for the past 13-15 years and mommy and daddy take their cars each week to get filled up with gas.
She was talking about what good credit they have. sssssss.....
Mommy and daddy going to make the house payments too?
“See a need, fill a need.”
*applause*
That will never work because they are spoiled and will only whine. Here is a tip, instead of peanut butter and bread just put some luggage by the front door. When they get home it will wake them up to reality.
If you don’t train em while they are young, you have to fight em when they are older.
That is what I am thinking. And hubby and I have struggled all my life for what little we have.
