I think I did something crazy!!

So, I had a pearl party this past week and it went great. There were only 6 people but we made it to $320 in sales and $200 was profit! And we only opened 33 oysters of the 112 that I took over. Well those same people want to have another party and may have even more people at this next one. So I feel like I did something crazy. I took the $200 I made in profit and bought more pearl stuff. I got 55 more oysters, 5 of which have twin pearls so those will be put into the grab bags. I also got a TON of pendants and about 25 percent of the ones I ordered are ones that the hostess specifically asked for. So.......It may be crazy or it might not be considering I only have one party in the future. Possibly two if my sister can convince some of her friends to have a party. But I'm also thinking about using my pearl business for good. The hostess of the last party was telling me that her daughter's cheerleading team needs new uniforms because the football team took all the money out of their account for their uniforms. So, I was thinking that if she asked all the adults associated with the cheerleaders to come to a party, then I would donate 75 percent of the profits to the team. I would of course take all my costs out so that I wouldn't actually lose any money and then 25% would be for me. If 30 people showed up and purchased something, we could be looking at a $1500 party with $1000 going to for the teams new uniforms.
