This is a financial educational book for children ages 5 to 12.
My family did not have a lot of money when I was a kid. Even when we had extra money, it seemed my parents still argued about never having enough. Life was good, but we lived pay check to pay check. Any chance I had, I would cut grass, do chores, collect aluminum, and work odd jobs just to buy the extras like cool shoes and music. As most kids do, I dreamed of being rich someday and having more money than my family...
More DescriptionThis is a financial educational book for children ages 5 to 12.
My family did not have a lot of money when I was a kid. Even when we had extra money, it seemed my parents still argued about never having enough. Life was good, but we lived pay check to pay check. Any chance I had, I would cut grass, do chores, collect aluminum, and work odd jobs just to buy the extras like cool shoes and music. As most kids do, I dreamed of being rich someday and having more money than my family had.
After high school, I went to college and became a teacher. I realized after working really hard and spending a lot of money to go to college, I had not learned anything about becoming rich. In fact, I thought going to college was going to solve that problem for me, but it didn't. I still had to get a "job" and start paying bills. After the bills were paid, I really didn't have much money left over. And that is when I decided I better become an entrepreneur and start learning about business.
Whether you want to be a doctor, lawyer, artist, veterinarian, police officer, teacher, carpenter, musician, actor, fire fighter, scientist, engineer or anything else, you must first learn to think like an entrepreneur. Simply put, a business person. Entrepreneurs create jobs for others and provide products and services to everyone. Sometimes entrepreneurs make a lot of money, and I mean a lot! But other entrepreneurs don't make any money because they don't understand the basic concepts I am sharing with you.
It is these concepts and ideas of business that I hope you learn from this book. Money is not a bad thing. Actually, money is great because it helps you and your family live a better life, as well as afford the opportunity to help those in need. Therefore, please enjoy this book.
I want you all to become successful entrepreneurs so you will be able to live your dreams.
I dedicate this book to my Dad.
Sincerely,
Danimal
