High school students learn some profitable lessons....

Hi all...

I really think it pays huge dividends to encourage (and teach) children to be self-sufficient.

My son, at 14 made $320 in a single day selling used books on Amazon...

Amazon makes it pretty easy to list used books for sale. All I had to show him was where to find the ISBN number in the book, how to grade books and he was off and running.

To make it a little more interesting he and I had a 'contest' to see who could list the most books- in the shortest time.

He won! He listed 14 books in 10 minutes and I only did...well never mind :-(

He went on to list another 40 books that day...and he sold 32 out of the 54 listed with an average profit of about $10 each and made $320!

He, of course was thrilled. Good experience- learning how to make money without a 'boss'..on your own...independant.

I like that too.
