There is this trusting little girl who never locked her school locker. Nothing had been lost, until one day when she left some sweets in it. The sweets disappeared, but some money was left there, presumably, by the taker.
Curious, she again left sweets in the locker, and then again found some money left there the next day, apparently in exchange for the sweets.
Amazed, she repeated the process, but this time , leaving more sweets there, and voila, she found more money left in her locker.
She then thought this could become a business and bought more sweets to leave them in her locker, and true enough, money flowed in and a business quickly flourished. Her locker soon became the popular de-facto candy store.
Then came a new student from a financially poor family who needed money. Realising that, she transferred her business to the new student and even bought the new stock.
And so, a social enterprise and micro-economy is born.
