Time Travel Expenses #1

Bob is a 19 year old boy genius.  He is currently in high school, at the top of his class, and  has excelled in school all throughout his life.  Bob scored a 36 on his ACT and is going to be successful in life.  One thing Bob lacks is people skills, so talking to people, women especially, is a huge struggle.  Bob understands that money talks and its the only drug people are in constant search for.  While Bob is a boy genius he is also dirt poor.  He comes from nothing and has had to work for everything he's gotten and will get.  His family is a group of sheep herders and makes only enough to eat and live in the shack they share with another family.  Bob uses the farm owners address to go to school and to study and work after school.  The farm owner is a crook he plans to use bob as a tool to become successful and get out of the farming business.  Its a long process and Bob just wants to get out of counting sheep to go to sleep.  Bob is a senior and is about 6 months away from his graduation.  While at school he meets Jerry, a spoiled rich boy who gets whatever he wants.  Jerry is also smart but he doesn't apply himself when it comes to his schooling.  Jerry and Bob have a few classes together and of course Bob excels in all of them but Jerry doesn't do his homework, so he is about C average in every one of them.  Jerry confronts Bob and tells him that he will pay him for doing all of his homework and keeping him ahead in all of his classes.  Bob agrees because he needs money for a big project he has been planning on working on, a time machine.  Bob has this plan to invent a time machine and win the lottery multiple times.  He would cover his self by making up some mathematical equation that would allow him to win every time.  He makes Jerry aware of his plans but at first Jerry is disinterested because he has all the money he needs and doesn't have to help anyone if he doesn't want to.  As far as Jerry is concerned, Bob is just another person who does his homework for a few hundred dollars, chump change for Jerry.  Months go by and Bob is almost finished drawing up his blueprint for his time machine when Jerry approaches him.
