Abstract
If you're like me I'm sure you're also tired of not being a multi-millionaire. Well for this week's UDLS, we're going to try to solve this lack of money problem with our very own version of Shark Tank. Why am I doing this? Because no one signed up for the UDLS and I thought this would be fun while still not being a lot of work for me. Also I was born to be an entrepreneur and it's honestly kinda messed up that you guys are trying to stop me fulfill my dream. So here's the idea: Y'all bring your best money making schemes and present them to me and my panel of judges. These ideas could be anything you think will make us a quick buck, maybe you want to open up a macaroni-taco food truck, maybe you want to create an autochess tower defence game, maybe you just think we should all invest in some UBC campus property and open a tacobell (which would honestly pay itself off in like a week and we should 100% do this and you should all be very thankful that I'm not participating because obviously I've a tenured schemer). You can bring whatever you want to pitch your ideas, a slide, a video, some props, literally nothing at all. It doesn't matter, I just want to hear those ideas that are going to make us rich and then pay you for those ideas. To help spur innovation and participation, we are going to give out two cash rewards (prob $25 giftcards for starbucks or something idk, stop asking me about it you sound desperate and it's just not a good look on you). One prize for the idea that the judges think is the best to invest in and one for the idea that the community thinks is worth investing in. Also, side note and NOT related to this at all, but I'm looking for two other people to help me judge a competition. NOT THIS ONE. Another one...for my uh girlfriend...you wouldn't know her, she goes to a different high school, but if you're interested in helping out please DM me. I look forward to seeing your ideas.
