What If… Santa Clause Was Real?

Well if Santa was real almost everything would change! The amount of toys sold would drop dynamically! Plus the amount of money people have left to spend on other things would increase dramatically! Although, if he was real riding reindeer through the sky at the speed of light, people would be very eager to get view of him and go on a hunting spree which would mean he would have a tough job delivering millions upon millions of presents and then dodging the hunters…

 However, people may become less spoilt if they know they’ll only get what they want twice a year… (Their birthdays and Christmas!)

In addition to more money available, as well as less toys sold it would mean that everything which is currently quite popular toys/video games wise wouldn’t go out of stock at such a rapid rate which means it may cause a certain increase in the amount of job losses in that area which would lead to an even worse economy that we’re already currently in! But this is where Santa usually comes in… He’ll probably discover that his work has lead to a merchandise downfall which has lead to an economy crash! So he’ll give up giving presents and while toys/video games are cheap I’d probably stock up on the amount I have and when the popularity returns to the items… I’ll sell them all for a much higher price than I bought them for! See? I always find a way for me to make money in these! Stay tuned for another “What if”!
