Cursed Fisherman still manages to look on the bright side

Fisherman, Ben Goodwell, and his fishing buisness have sunk greatly in profit.

During one of Goodwell's days out at sea, the weather created much chaos and clutter. The thundering storm tore and bit away at Goodwell's boat, leaving all his catch of the day to have fallen back into the sea [and leaving him, having to swim back to shore--tired, and later becoming sick.] This storm also left his best boat destroyed and unable to repair. No boat, means no way to catch fish for Goodwell. He is awaiting for more profit in his fish to purchase materials to build a new boat. But following this ill-fated event, Goodwell has had limited sales. With his unsold fish, many have rotted and have been thrown away to waste. Looking on the bright side, Goodwell is managing his way through this hard time and hoping for future blessings. "I believe that every well achieved man must face some sort of loss inorder to regain himself and find happiness. This might've struck me hard but I'm lookin' foward to what's to come." Goodwell says. He encourages all working men to learn from their failures and gain faith.

Beaver Fur!

Peter Williams, age 34, has found a streak of luck with catching beaver fur. With the booming uprise population of Beavers, Williams has taken advantage of the large number by setting traps around many lakes and rivers.

Williams has managed to trap an average of 24 beavers within one day. Given this high amount, he has had very profitable trade and receives high wealth. And in addition, England is in [now then ever] high demand of Beaver fur. As this trend is spreading quickly-- hats and coats are very fashionable and wanted, causing the prices to have shot up greatly. Lucky for Williams, his plan seems to work well. And you may ask, His strategy? Well, with his self derived tactics, he is able to trick the Beaver and lure it to capture. He won't give us all the details, but he has clued some of his fellow friends and relatives in on his Beaver catching approach.

Crops bring in success!

John Williams Jr., a subsistence farmer has found luck upon his Corn crops. He and his family have struggled harshly through the winters, but managed to survive. The crops he had originally planted had failed so Williams Jr.later, purchased another portion of land in hope for food. While others have failed with the soils of the land he had purchased, Williams Jr. has figured out a way to create large amounts of successful corn crops, and with the barrels of corn he has harvested--blacksmiths and hunters have traded soft furs and heavy duty tools in exchange. With the given tools, he has made many more hoes and plows to help garden his crops. Luck was by his side, and his family's, as they sleep with warmth and full stomachs.

George Blackwell, a struggling Wheat farmer--has too, met luck. Facing the death of his wife, Blackwell attempted to erase memory of her by trading her possessions. With his wife's pottery, cloths, and other belongings, Blackwell has managed to buy more land and harvests Wheat crops. Bakers of New York have given him bread in exchange of wheat, and many others--in need of wheat trade their vegetables, tools, and cloths. Blackwell has faced success, and even remarried.
