Amalia Mourad, an 18-year-old UC Berkeley student, hawks baked good on Solano Avenue in order to pay for tuition. According to Berkeleyside, "She takes out a $12,000 subsidized loan for the year, which barely covers tuition" but she still must pay for "housing, food and school supplies." (Pst, she faces a $12,192 tuition bill for 2011-2012.)
Berkeleyside goes on to say that Mourad sold "her own homemade chocolate chip and oatmeal cookies, Rice Krispies squares, extra-large cupcakes and brownies" We think if she sold Fruit Pebbles treats -- which are nothing short of Christ-like -- we think she'll see profits more than triple.
Good luck, Amalia!
