I don't know about rich, but my household would be much more well off had my biological mother not been a mentally unstable gold-digging asshole.
Idk how well this would actually sell but years ago in my early 20s, I came up with the idea for a beer coozie for 40oz bottles.
40s are great if you are poor and want just enough of a buzz but unless you chug them, they get warm halfway through. Which is also why 12oz cans/bottles are probably also more appealing.
Just a big ass coozie to keep your Bud Ice cold in a Sunday afternoon of porch drinking.
I bought 100 shares of Gamestop when it was $4 in November 2020 and sold at around $10
I played the stock market game in grade school and noticed this one stock, BRKHA that was moving thousands of dollars daily (and was occasionally dipping into the hundreds). Considering the others would only move a fraction of a dollar daily it was a goal to get one share for the game. I did and ended up winning.
I should have tried to pressure my parents into at least one share. By the time I was 18 it would have been worth 70k, and these days it's up to.. Nearly 700k per share.
I would've likely sold it on my 18th birthday and been able to languish a bit longer than I did. All in all it wouldn't have been worth doing.
