Well, I’m finally sorting through boxes and boxes of paperwork to take to my long suffering Accountant, hoping to put my affairs in order so that the 2009 – 2010 Financial Year is unencumbered by the debris and detritus of years past.
And I came across a packet of Money Seeds, which one of my lenders had posted to me as a sales promotion some time ago.
The Money Seeds are in a typical seed packet – a picture of the grown tree on the front, and the map of Australia showing Growing Regions on the back, with All Year Round and Harvest notes, and tips on how to Cultivate, Germinate, Manage, Grow and Mature the seeds.
Very clever.
Which brings me to ask:
What are your Money Seeds and how do you tend to your Money Tree?
How did you get your first Money Seeds? When and where did you plant them and how long did it take your Money Tree to bear fruit?
My Money Seeds were from pocket money given to me by my Mother, added to with earnings from Saturday mornings at Coles Variety Store in West Heidelberg, added to and finally planted in a five acre block at Garibaldi, where they just about withered to death, but other Money Seeds planted in a townhouse in Ivanhoe grew well.
Different climate, I guess.
Over the years I have tried all sorts of Money Seeds, but the ones which grow best for me are the common or garden variety which don’t take much looking after. Weeds, really, they grow when I’m not looking.
Interestingly, every place I have owned has had the tallest trees in the neighbourhood, real landmark trees, even small places have always had tall trees. So I guess money really does grow on trees!
I don’t want to open the packet of Money Seeds. Like the story of the Rich Man and the Beggar with the nugget of gold, if we find something to be valuable it is, and if it is useless, it is.
So I shall put the Money Seeds with the other packets of seed on the shelf, where I can see it every day, and remind myself to keep on planting Money Seeds if I want to achieve a continuous harvest.
PS: Mike reckons it’s got beans in the packet, as in Jack and the Beanstalk beans. When we get to HOTTA we will open the packet and plant the Money Seeds / Beans and see what transpires. It would be just as much fun to climb a beanstalk - well, almost as much fun, as having a real Money Tree in the garden!
Cheers
