Theo Sterling, a ruthlessly ambitious corporate climber, is violently ejected from his career and finds himself facing the poverty he desperately fears. With only $2,000 between him and the streets, a mysterious mental breakdown leaves him with an impossible gift, the power to grant any object a permanent "+1" enhancement.



Driven by his gnawing terror of failure, Theo begins methodically exploiting his unique ability, with the aim of becoming a billionaire. From enhancing basic knives for quick cash (and cutting ethical corners when necessary), to optimizing high-value bicycles for substantial profit, he relentlessly seeks ways to maximize the return on each precious enhancement. Navigating a mundane world with his special power, Theo readily pushes ethics aside, believing ruthlessness is the only path to the almighty profit. As he dives headfirst into more questionable and morally grey endeavours, his bank account swells, but does this solitary climb built on calculated risks lead only to an isolating peak? Or is there a heavier, unseen cost to Theo’s singular pursuit of money?



What to Expect:

- Money, lots of it, it's all about money!

- Progression Fantasy, tracking Theo's path to becoming a billionaire, or die trying

- Low fantasy, ability to enhance items with +1, and the ingenious ways of using this to make money

- LitRPG used to track profit and losses using a ledger, the measure of wealth and success

- Ethics and Morals... nah not really. Theo is as grey as it gets. May come into play later, but only after getting rich, ridiculously rich

- 4-5k words per chapter (or more sometimes)



Schedule - Daily release (1.5-2k words). Bigger chapters will be split over multiple days.
