>trying to teach Applejack some basic business skills.

>Somehow she keeps nearly loosing her farm with little overhead.

>She passes with flying colors, top of the class even!

>Great, maybe she'll finally start making a profit.

>One year later you check in on her.

>The farm once more is under threat of closing.

"Applejack, what the fuck?"

>"Your fancy smancy ehcawnamics did nuthin! All my money's still goin' faster than a jack rabbit with ice skates made of greased lightning!"

"Well where do you keep your money?"

>"Back in the barn, ah don' trust no stringin' money grubbin' banks."

"Care to show me?"

>She leads you out back to the barn, and opens up the cellar.

>Inside is very little, only a few bags of bits.

>And... is that someone eating?

>"See? It keeps vanishing!"

>You look around a bit, not paying attention to Applejack but focusing on that sound.

>It seems to be coming from the bags themselves.

>You poke one, and it shuffles.

"AHAH!"

>You rip the bag open, and see Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle, and Applebloom.

>Their coats are stained brown, and the three of them look pudgy.

>Surrounding them all are a large ammount of golden wrappers.

>Turns out, Equestria uses chocolate coins, and the CMC caught on to this.

>Gold is actually quite rare, all of it was used up for guard armor, so the Government had to find an alternative.

>Fucking cost cutting.
