A podcast interview with author Troy Dunn convinced me to get this book. He is a self-made millionaire, and he has seven kids, all of which he is encouraging to be entrepreneurs. His basic theme is to help your kids turn something they are interested in into something they can make money at as well. In his experience as a radio talk show host and business coach, it is usually the parent's preconceptions that unknowingly stifle the kid's natural creativity and business interest. In his book he strives to turn the parents into effective mentors. The goal is encourage kids to understand what it means to be their own boss. Chances are that they will like it and it will change the way they look at work, money, and opportunity in the future. Think of it as your way to "stick it to the man" via the next generation.
