Penn Entrepreneur Uses Canvas, FB Groups To Sell Cheat Sheet

Every Penn student wants to be an entrepreneur as it's the only socially acceptable way to live in your parent's basement following graduation. For this Silicon Valley-bound Penn male, his journey to VC-stardom has already begun as he has found the newest, most-innovative way to sell his Econ-102 cheat sheet. Someone call our boy Dennis DeTurck because we really aren't sure if this is breaking some academic integrity codes.

This future Elon Musk first outsourced his work to his girlfriend to sell his "elaborate, top-quality" Econ-102 cheat sheet in the most-dynamic market at Penn, the Free and For Sale FB group. After being undercut by the #market (this is called irony), he turned to the second most-creative channel he could think of, the class Canvas list. In the end, a group of students crowd funded a purchase of the cheat sheet, to find out it was nothing more than the professor's slides sloppily stitched together (yes this is the real cheat sheet). This Penntrepreneur (copyright UTB forever) learned a valuable lesson; no matter how hard you pretend, economics will always be a College major, so stop pretending to be a sneaky Wharton student.
