Introduction
“Today we are learning about Q-Source 1.9, Mammon. Mammon is ‘The sustaining relationship between a man and his work.’ Are you ready to go to work?” Let’s get to work! We will be doing a “Pearls (of Wisdom) on a String”, using our Coupons. We will transport the coupons with Wheelbarrows, splitting into groups (with all groups moving together) to make it easier.
Count off by 2, 3 or 4 based on how many PAX you have. You want 4-7 people in each Squad, and each Squad needs its own wheelbarrow to transport the coupons for that Squad. All PAX will travel together around the AO.

All PAX move together, using wheelbarrows to transport their coupons (alternate the PAX who transports coupons). At each stop, PAX perform 3 or 4 of the following exercises”:
- 20 Chest Presses (on my up)
- 20 Skull Crushers (on my down)
- 20 Curls (on my up)
- 20 Shoulder Presses (on my up)
Keep track of time, and adjust reps as necessary to complete the circuit. There are 6 stops in total.

The businessman and the fisherman
A boat was docked in a tiny Calabrian fishing village.
A tourist complimented the local fishermen on the quality of their fish and… asked how long it took to catch them.
“Not very long” they answered in unison.
“Why didn’t you stay out longer and catch more?”
The fishermen explained that their small catches were sufficient to meet their needs and those of their families.
“But what do you do with the rest of your time?”
“We chat in the piazza with friends, fish a little, play with our children, and enjoy time with our wives. In the evenings, we go into the village to see our friends, have a few drinks, play the guitar, and sing a few songs.
We have a full life.”
The tourist interrupted, “I have an MBA from Harvard and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat.”
“And after that?”
“With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers.
Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can then negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to Milan, London, Los Angeles, or even New York City!!! From there you can direct your huge new enterprise.”
“How long would that take?”
“Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years.” replied the tourist.
“And after that?”
“Afterwards? Well my friend, that’s when it gets really interesting,” answered the tourist, laughing. “When your business gets really big, you can start buying and selling stocks and make millions!”
“Millions? Really? And after that?” asked the fishermen.
“After that you’ll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, play with your children, catch a few fish, enjoy time with your wife and spend your evenings drinking and enjoying your friends.”
“With all due respect sir,” replied the Italians, “that’s exactly what we are doing now.”

Norm forgot to put air in his Wheelbarrow tie that group had a more difficult time with the Thang. We only lost one coupon during the journey.
