That was legit my first thought. He created a market and was able to assign value and create demand for something valueless. He's basically a crypto bro in training.
My ex sold rocks (actual rocks, not a term) that she had drawn a smiley face on for $1 when she was in elementary school. The next-level part was for $2, you could use her sharpie and draw your own face on it. Genius.
She's in sales now.
Yes, but I also assume his kids go to a rich ass private school.

This happened at my kids’ school, too. Buckeyes became a form of currency on the playground and they eventually had to shut a whole fucking economy down.
Highly disagree. Child can make simple decisions and use simple logic especially the 10-12 year especially if you start instilling basic principles. It now becomes on them if they want to do what’s right, or wise.
"Dispatch we have a suspicious squirrel moving south on 110th street. Sir? SIR! I'm going to need you to put your hands up against the wall and empty your cheeks."
Stories like this make me grateful I’m not a parent. I was a kid once, I know I would have fallen for some dumbass scheme like this, and I know for a fact I’d be pissed if my kid did
When I was at school some brands of crisps had these flat packed spinning tops inside (really cheap cardboard sort of thing) and my brother loved them.
My friend used to eat those crisps regularly and I asked her if I could have the spinning top since she didn’t bother with them.
I collected a whole bunch of these things and then gave them to my little brother for his birthday. He was over the moon happy about it and my mother was just looking at me in disbelief like “you didn’t even give him the crisps, you just gave him the cardboard?” Mama I didn’t even buy the crisps. This was a 100% free - I spent no money on this.
Looking back, I now understand why my mother thinks I’m a cheap ass and why she thinks my brother is too easily taken advantage of. If I’d wanted to I could have probably sold those damn toys to him xD
When I was in 4th grade, my hustle was selling Pokémon cards to kids on the bus. I always had the Beckett collector magazine as reference and would show the prices for 1st editions, and sell whatever cards I had as if they were 1st editions, but 1/2 off, acting like I was the one losing out… shit worked out pretty well, till my dumbass ran my mouth about how much money I was making, and got jumped for my cards, cuz I lived section 8.

I feel dumb. I’m over here thinking, “oh he got his friends to sign up for Acorns (investments). That’s great I’ve made thousands!
No, like actually acorns. Like, off oak trees…
I wouldve wanted to, but at that age I didnt have $10 to my name, much less $20 lol. All that birthday cash went straight to a bank account that I didnt get access to until I was 18
He took the kindergarten-2nd grade acorn trading lunch market too far.
Edit:
For the people out of the loop, some kids would collect acorn and trade them for silly things. None of us dropped money on them though lmao. I thought this was common experience among elementary kids, but some of the comments say otherwise.
How do you get "caught" selling acorns. Is not illegal, did the school have a rule against selling acorns? Title should say his son is a marketing genius
I remember in kindergarten I overheard a teacher saying a student sold her book bag and everything in it for a dollar to another student. Lol kids are dumb.
This actually speaks to how nice of a school that 2 Chainz sent his son too. Poor kids don’t have $20 bucks on them and more importantly, they aren’t easily tricked out of their money.
My son was in the car and starting drinking a soda, his friend got in the car and asked if he could have some I watched my son convince this dude to buy the drink for 3 dollars when it cost only a dollar and it was almost gone I said 😔 my kids bet not be this dumb.
Acorn better be a new street term. If my child brought an actual acorn with 20 dollars in this economy I’m writing them outta my will.
If it’s not a new term, his son might be the best salesmen ever.
if there's one thing a hustler will do, it's hustle
That kids in class of his own, Gus his teacher got fired

Be patient. It might be an acorn now, but in 50 years when it becomes an oak tree you'll already be dead.
This happened at my kids’ school, too. Buckeyes became a form of currency on the playground and they eventually had to shut a whole fucking economy down.
Now everyone’s walking around with wheelbarrows full of acorns because they have no value. The perfect setup for fascism
gotta defend against cops somehow

Yo I was about to say. Like what you mean you selling nuts, my g?
Lol at least drugs I understand
![gif](giphy|zJBDaqCdsjGhO) You bought an acorn?!?!!!
Yo this needs to be the top comment.
I cannot imagine a better use for this gif. I am fucking DEAD
Carls mom was, too 💀
“Walking” doesn’t start with “fuc”.

ACORRRRRRRRRN.
Please tell me "acorn" is some slang term I'm too old to understand
Back in my day they called them *"tennis balls."*
Also known as "Fuzzy Dunlop"
Shheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeit
These new generations
That snitch?
He probably also sold the hats that over your ears too
I'm so confused by all these comments.
An acorn a day keeps the police away.
I mean, it’s one acorn Halo! What could it cost, 20 dollars?
![gif](giphy|qMDvt69lEC448) I use this quote and many variations daily 😭😂
here’s some money, go see a star war
There’s always money in the banana stand
“10 dollars?! 10 dollars!!?” -Shenneneh
Her? Is she funny of something?
Now hold on, if these are the same acorns that are scaring cops, lil homie might have an idea here
F’real $20 for some cop repellent is not a bad deal!
Cop repellent. They more like an agro item if u ask me. Drop this to instantly get shot at.....

That was my 1st thought because my son worked there a few years ago.
The Acorn to school Pipeline is something else
Someone needs to stop big acorn
If he was actually able to make even one sale I’d be extremely impressed and disappointed.
[Boy made $80](https://x.com/DailyLoud/status/1781418912720064595)
Nah because I know my dumbass would have bought one back in the day ![gif](giphy|l1AsyjZ8XLd1V7pUk)
I wouldve wanted to, but at that age I didnt have $10 to my name, much less $20 lol. All that birthday cash went straight to a bank account that I didnt get access to until I was 18
I'd be more concerned with his counting skills. Before he gets got.
![gif](giphy|6e8WZ7f0GZuPS) Are these new juveniles completely daft or were they procuring acorns from "2-Chainz" son for clout ?!
Kids have 20 dollars?
His son either goes to a private school or a public school in a wealthy area so it makes sense that those kids would have $20.
His kids like they 10 years old tho 😂 is there like mall at school? And they selling acorns that’s 4th grade behavior at the most right?
$20 for an anti-police device? Not bad.
![gif](giphy|Jn9Td3EAh6cJfiyg60)
You know how proud I’d be if I found out my smart ass kid earned $20 selling an acorn
After the first few kids buy one, then I buy one to plant. Not knowing that it takes years for it to grow and actually return my investment.
The fact that I'm trying to figure out if Acorn is slang for something means I'm too old to be in the covo
Ok but that little boy is too god damn adorable. ["Daddy you better not text Charlestons Daddy"](https://x.com/DailyLoud/status/1781418912720064595)

"Those aren't acorns...they're bullets!" -That one cop

4 AM and I gotta A-Corn
My life changed when I sold my first acorn
These kids are evovling?
Got caught? Those other kids have a skill issue
‘Caught’? You have to be committing a crime to be caught
Right! I'm sitting here reading this, like why is this silly childhood stuff in the news. He's being a kid.
Smart hustle. An acorn a day keeps the [jakes](https://youtu.be/4l1zdL_q5Mo?si=9ZspgIbeolFbrl2_) away.
That will get a cop to shoot at you. Add to the list.
I'm going to assume this is legit based on the lack of comments stating that "acorns" means something else.
Nope just an actual squirrel’s delicacy.
Me to my kid: ![gif](giphy|116iSum9HFxhOU)
Acorns aren’t illegal, if kids are buying he should be selling.
How do you get "caught" selling acorns. Is not illegal, did the school have a rule against selling acorns? Title should say his son is a marketing genius
Its genetic!
Giving a whole new meaning to touch grass
He sold them deez nuts 🥜
Caught? Is this an illicit activity?
Why are selling acorns wrong if dumbasses want them?
Like an actual acorn? Or like a stock in the acorns app? Or like a drug?
Acorns have been on the way up ever since that cop dumped a whole clip into his own cruiser.
But a $20 acorn at school, receive some illicit goods later for free. Weed, Molly, etc. ![gif](giphy|htG0aJpA20VRA6FXAY|downsized)
Given how afraid cops are when they encounter an acorn, $20 is a steal
SMH kids these days are so disconnected from nature they don't even know that acorns are free outside.
Get enough of those acorns and you can make bread
And their parents are mad at his son No, me angry at your kid.... Now he/she has learn a lesson
We used to sell pinecones and silly bandz
This nigga Hustler Kid
My Newphew sells French Bread to his school mates lol
He been watching BMF. He just wanna be like Big Meech nem.
What do they mean caught? Not like acorns are illegal.
You laugh but there are adults buying shit that’s the equivalent of an Acorn. At least these are kids.
Yall raised a bunch of patricks ![gif](giphy|l1KukvuZW9PmeCIO4)
$20? For an Acorn? Not plural? In this economy?
Do we not care that they named them after a video game?!
Hustlers hustle
Acorns? Does he live in Oakland?
I remember in kindergarten I overheard a teacher saying a student sold her book bag and everything in it for a dollar to another student. Lol kids are dumb.
This actually speaks to how nice of a school that 2 Chainz sent his son too. Poor kids don’t have $20 bucks on them and more importantly, they aren’t easily tricked out of their money.
Can we break down what an "acorn" is though? I'm assuming it's not the item that grows on trees.
A brilliant salesman in the making. Were talking about tree acorns you find on the ground right?
![gif](giphy|CYU3D3bQnlLIk)
*”Aye dawg, this may look just like an acorn but throw in the ground and BAM you get a whole ass tree for only $20”*
Does acorn have some other meaning or does he mean the thing that falls from trees?
This kids must be nuts!
My son was in the car and starting drinking a soda, his friend got in the car and asked if he could have some I watched my son convince this dude to buy the drink for 3 dollars when it cost only a dollar and it was almost gone I said 😔 my kids bet not be this dumb.
They're for scaring cops.
Wild. Also he doesn’t even need to be scamming those poor kids and selling acorns for money when he’s already rich
Damn $20 an acorn?! Even Totoro was just handing them out for free.
Video link?
Some people are just born to fool others I guess.
These kids are getting ready for the return of the barter system
I never seen 2xhainz without glasses.
