Tips on getting gold on Cake Street 1?

Help? I know I'm overlooking something obvious! Thanks!

Okay, I'm answering my own post - I figured it out! You start with 9900 and don't buy anything to start. Wait until the bears come, trap and sell them. Now you have enough money to buy a cow. Then when the cow has produced a milk, sell the cow and milk. Now buy the pig and chickens and produce the rest that is needed. I was able to get gold and a time of 2:13. Hope this helps someone else!
