This is a very intense, fast-paced, in-depth course about money and Entrepreneurship. Kids in this class will learn budgeting, taxes, paying for college, credit, credit card management, loans, mindsets and attitudes towards money, emotional spending, values of homes and apartments, what it costs to live on your own, the cost of luxury items everyone wants, and so much more! 

The purpose of this camp is very simple: to set kids up for success. Too many well-meaning adults give so much bad advice when it comes to money, and especially to college, that kids end up making huge financial mistakes that can affect them for years into adulthood. I want to inform kids of what the world is really like so they can learn to save, be disciplined with their money, and so they can be as financially successful as possible. Heck, if my training can help kids become millionaires in the future, I would love that! I believe that when kids are taught about what's possible, they'll be able to change their lives, and even the world! Knowledge is power, and this camp empowers kids to make great decisions and avoid the mistakes that so many of us made growing up!

HOW IT WORKS:

Every Sunday, I will post a video for that week's content. Every Wednesday, students will post a short summary of their take-aways so I can see what they are actually learning. 1-2 Discussion Questions will be posted weekly that will include quick HW assignments that are to be answered by Friday of that week. Students are encouraged to interact with each other to share their learning, suggestions, comments, and questions. I will be active in responding to student posts as well.

Students will be given a quiz on Wednesdays from Quizizz, and will need to finish and submit results by Friday every week so students can discuss their results together. 

Each week, students will create a piece of their life-plan that they post on our class padlet based on that week's content. Students will be able to see, comment, and rate each other's ideas, and they will be able to modify their own life-plans if they so choose based on the content that others post. 

OPTIONAL LIVE MEETING:

Students have the option to request a live meeting in order to meet other students or myself, and to ask questions or make comments.

Kids will be able to answer these questions after camp is over:

Is college for me?
What is the smartest way to pay for college if I decide to go?
How can I leverage my current skills and interests to make money RIGHT NOW?
Can I afford the life I want when I'm an adult?
Can I afford to move out and live on my own?
How can I leverage the internet to start a business?
How can I manage credit cards responsibly?
What even is a credit score, and how can I make mine amazing?
What are taxes and how do they affect me?
What do I need to do to be able to afford that Lambo and Rolex? (And other luxury items)
What is a loan and how do they work?
How do I buy a car?
And yes....so much more! :)
