How to TURN absolute NOTHING into HEAPS
OF MONEY! 
If you're in GEORGIA, THE KUDZU STATE, you learn to weave baskets!

tells
us that GEORGIA has this thick, ropey, viney WEED crawling over entire
state. There's too much KUDZU! Farmers pay you to haul it away but look
at what a KUDZU BASKET is worth in NEW YORK. 40$.

Throw in a big flat pillow, one with a side zipper making it washable,
in some firm fabric, and make mattress doggie sized. You can get a hundred
bucks or more. 
So why not get the FOXFIRE BOOKS at the library and learn how to weave baskets. Create big generous, dramatic baskets that will hold the family dog, (with a little bedding,) or piles of FRUIT for a family of eight, or hold this month's magazines for some family tha subscribes to everything... on a coffee table. A huge, handmade basket would look opulent on a coffee table. Imagine, you could go into a manufacturing down in the rural south with no more merchandise costs than a lot of freebie VINES.
