Herbert sat at the kitchen table, reading the newspaper. Margot was trying to balance the checkbook. "This month's budget is a disaster!" she exclaimed.

"Maybe we need an economist to help us," Herbert suggested, not looking up from his paper.

Margot sighed. "An economist? Herbert, we can barely afford groceries, let alone an economist! Besides, half of economics is just confusion anyway."

Brian walked in, skateboarding gear in hand. "What's all the shouting about? Is the ice cream gone?"

"Worse," Margot said. "Dad thinks we need an economist."

Brian snorted. "That'll just cause more controversy! Remember when he tried to 'invest' in that online donut company?"

Herbert lowered his newspaper slightly. "That was a solid plan! It would have been a goldmine if it wasn't for�?� technical difficulties."

Margot massaged her temples. "Your entire lifetime hasn't been enough to learn about bad financial decisions, has it, Herbert?"

"Hey, I'm willing to be flexible!" Herbert declared. "I'm willing to sell...your board games, Brian."

Brian gasped dramatically. "Never! My board games are sacred!"

Margot shook her head, a small smile playing on her lips. "Sometimes, I wonder how we function as a family."
