The video shows Ryan Trahan starting his journey in Fredericksburg, Texas, with just a penny. He also set some rules for the challenge – All profit must come from the penny, and everything he buys must be paid for by the profit from the penny. The funds were generated to be donated to Central Texas Food Bank.

He first bought a pan with the penny, then sold it for a dollar and bought a bag of peppermints with it. He then sold peppermints from the bag and collected $6 from the sales, and went on to start a roadside chocolate and candy selling business!

Here are the next 2 videos of his journey with more to come soon:
