<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

My friend (Zac) and I used to own a little neighborhood lemonade business to make extra cash when we were 8-9ish. We would employ the young kids in the neighborhood (knowing they were cuter and they would sell more as well as needing less pay) and set up many stands throughout our neighborhood. We would sit inside and watch Zoids and Dragon Ball Z while they would sweat their little gullible faces off all while reaping all the profit. I believe the most money we made was 74 dollars and spent it on  Pokemon Saphire and Ruby so we could trade each other version exclusive pokemon while we continued to run the semi-profitable lemonade business..... Damn, those fucking onions. I thought I told you stop cutting them marie.
