Nigel's dad, Jedward, grew up in an orphanage run by a chocolate company. Ironically, the children were not allowed to eat very much candy (though he was trained to be a confectioner).
Jedward came into a small amount of money and he was very excited about buying candy for just himself. Then it dawned on him that if he just saved a little bit more money, he would have enough for a small portable transistor radio.
When he saved enough for the radio, he realized that if he just saved a little bit more, he would have enough to buy a record player.
When he saved enough for the record player, he realized that if he just saved a little bit more, he would have enough to buy a hi-fi system.
When he saved enough for the hi-fi, he realized that if he saved a bit more, he would have enough money to buy a nice bike.
When he saved enough for the bike, he realized that if he saved still more, he would have enough to buy a car.
This continued and continued. Let's just say that at the end of all his saving, he bought his first house with CASH.
See what you can do with a little candy money?
