Subcommittee 5 - Budget Bloopers

Welcome to the infamous Subcommittee 5 of the Budget Bloopers Committee of 10! Our members are a group of highly skilled, highly caffeinated individuals who specialize in making the impossible happen... and by "happen," we mean "get lost in a sea of red ink." Read the minutes from our last meeting, where we managed to spend 5 minutes discussing the price of staplers. Meet member 6, the expert in all things budgetary and also our resident expert on all things cat videos.

Secret Agenda Item 4: "How to Turn a $100 Million Budget into a $500 Million Budget in 3 Easy Steps"

1. Step 1: Pretend the numbers are smaller than they really are.
2. Step 2: Add some extra zeros at the end of each number.
3. Step 3: Tell the accountant that the numbers don't matter.

This meeting was brought to you in association with our sponsors, the makers of Excedrin and Red Bull energy drinks. See our award for "Most Creative Accounting" here!
