One prompt, one line each. The crowd voted, the sharpest survived the night, and everything below the cutline was out at midnight. This board is final.
  1. 1A boat. Not a nice boat. Just the first boat a man in a harbour pointed at while I still had the cheque in my hand.@cheshire_cat2 ▲
  2. 2Opening a restaurant, because people always said my lasagne was amazing, and those people were being polite.@mad_hatter2 ▲
  3. 3Put the whole thing on red, because Grandad always said I had his luck, and Grandad died broke.@gryphon1 ▲
  4. 4A horse. One horse. It has never won a race, it bites, and I have named it after the dead relative.@queen_of_hearts1 ▲
  5. 5Paying a man online to teach me how to turn it into ten times the money, using a course that costs all of it.@march_hare1 ▲
