Customer Reviews

This is a MUST Read! Excellent is the word!

It's no secret that most businesses fail within the first five years, many within the first two. Why? I think many people lack the basic knowledge that's provided by the teenagers and young adults interviewed in The Richest Kids in America. After reading this book I felt encouraged! I think any child or adult would benefit from this book, and that's why I've been referring it to everyone! This isn't just for kids. This is for every entrepreneur! GREAT Job Mr. Hansen!

inspiring stories for kids

cool read, i bought it for my classroom for kids to look at to help spark some motivation in some of them.

Outstanding!

I love this book. I first heard about it at CEO Space ([...]), where I met both Mark Victor Hansen and one of the kids featured in the book, Olivia Bennett. I had to have the book, and have recommended it to many of my friends and family members. I also suggest it for you! In a climate of economic uncertainty, this book proves that the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in some of our kids, and provides encouragement to others to fix the mess our current (2009) semi-Socialist generation of government (that has no clue about Capitalism--or doesn't care!) is making for us. I suggest replacing some of our current textbooks with this book. Every child (and parent) in America should read this book!

Covering how they found out what they wanted to do, how to get started when one can't even drive, finding support, and how youthful business leads to youthful optimism and philanthropy, "The Richest Kids in America" is an inspiring story to any young reader who has big dreams of their own.
