Chapter 538 - 534: The Little Treasury of the Two
Translator: 549690339
As parents, they had everything arranged properly.
However, when they told the two little guys about it, both of them shook their heads.
Richelle Dunn and Roy Lewis were puzzled. “So, did Daddy and Mommy not plan it well enough? Or do you want to fully focus on your studies now and not get involved in these things too early?”
Timmy and Timothy looked at each other, and then Timmy spoke as their representative.
“Daddy and Mommy, the initial investment funds are part of the charity project you contributed to. As for the subsequent derived projects, my brother and I will invest our own money. So, the profits from that part should also be considered as our income, okay?”
Roy Lewis said he didn’t care, but in his heart, he actually had an estimated valuation for the two sons’ entire original to derived industry chain. Even if he removed his initial investment, the subsequent investments were still several hundred thousand dollars.
So, when Timmy said this, Roy couldn’t help feeling astonished.
“Baby, I know you have a lot of pocket money, but that’s only a few million dollars at most. Are you planning to use the dividends from the Lewis Group’s shares?”
As far as he knew, Richelle had, with the children’s consent, purchased Dunn Group shares from the dividends the brothers had received in recent months. So, there shouldn’t be much cash available from her, and it might even be less than the pocket money Timmy had saved up over the years.
The brothers looked at Richelle and then at Roy.
“Daddy and Mommy, let’s settle this matter here and now! You said once that this is our first business venture, and we will be entirely responsible for it!”
Obviously, the brothers had made up their minds long ago. They were just informing their parents now, with no intention of seeking their opinions.
Roy felt mixed feelings when faced with the determined sons.
It wasn’t until the boys ran off that he asked Richelle.
“Where do you think they get their money?”
Richelle had been thinking about it seriously since just now.
“You said Timmy has savings, right? And it seems like Timothy has also been working on some side projects for the past year, and oh, I gave them 20% of the dividends from the stocks. If they pool their money together, it’s definitely not enough for several hundred thousand dollars. But Timothy’s investments are quite insightful, so I reckon there’s a chance he could double that money with investments!”
Richelle, as the mother, clearly understood the two sons much better than Roy, the father.
So, her estimates were more or less accurate.
However, neither of them knew that the brothers had once extorted several hundred thousand dollars from their own dad.
And that several hundred thousand dollars, after some time of investment, had already earned quite a bit.
So, now the two little fellows can easily afford not only the investments in the derived projects, but also the initial ones.
But, the two kids were shrewd.
For the money they shouldn’t spend, they wouldn’t spare a single cent.
After all, starting a business is tough!
The calculations in the two little guys’ minds were completely unknown to their parents.
Only afterwards, with various excuses, they kept giving the children pocket money creatively.
Of course, this was under the premise that they knew the children didn’t have bad habits of spending money recklessly.
The pocket money they received eventually went to Timothy, who then used that money to make investments and grow wealth.
Roy, after learning about Timothy’s investment talent, consulted him once privately.
Then, the little guy told him that a few months ago, he had invested all the money he had in a certain rare metal, and the stock price of that rare metal had risen more than twofold in a few months.
Within a few months, he had doubled his original capital.
After hearing this, Roy couldn’t help but give Timothy a thumbs up.
That’s because Roy, an old market veteran, had also invested heavily in that rare metal a few months ago and had likewise made a sizable profit.
But being a veteran, he had more resources and experience than a little child like Timothy.
He made that investment decision based on the global economic situation combined with resource distribution and various political factors.
Being a child, Timothy naturally couldn’t compare to him in that regard.
Yet, he had accurately judged the situation.
Richelle meant that her son had always been so insightful, which was why their wealth kept growing like a snowball.
It was not just a stroke of good luck.
After analyzing all this, Roy secretly felt delighted.
Richelle, who was sitting next to him and busy with other things, glanced at him inadvertently and saw him grinning to himself and couldn’t help but be curious.
“What’re you thinking about? You look so happy.”
Roy didn’t hide it.
“I am thinking that, with Timothy taking over the company, and Timmy taking over your part, it seems like we can retire early.”
Richelle was amused too.
“Master Lewis, your sons are child laborers and we are greedy parents.”
Roy laughed as well.
“It seems so. We can only pray that Timmy and Timothy won’t complain about us, and that the labor union won’t reach this far. Otherwise, our wonderful retirement plan will go down the drain..”
