Forget the allowance, the new thing is to be a young entrepreneur or "kidpreneur". Action News recently met one such kidpreneur from Willow Grove, Montgomery County.
"This is a story about a young man named John and his dog Ruffles and their trip to outer space," saidJohn is a 10-year-old fifth grader and the author of "John's Journey to Outer Space." He wrote the story when he was five after a trip to a space museum.But the budding astronaut is already an entrepreneur, or kidpreneur if you will, with a second book out and a vending machine business.
You can offer tutoring, babysitting, something creative or something as simple as walking home a younger child from school.Whatever your passion, Tameka says kidpreneurs learn real world lessons to help them now and in the future. "These are problem solving skills, financial literacy skills and even just learning how to talk to people in public, take rejection, so there are so many other lifelong skills that come along with it," she said."First of all, you should try your best and you shouldn't give up on the first try and you should be confident about yourself," he said.
John says it's important to keep investing in your business to keep it going. His books retail for $10 and you can find them most place books are sold.
