Teaching Teens About Multiple Streams of Income

This book aims to inspire young people to dream big and share insights about multiple streams of income that young people can explore. In 2022 I launched a new program called "I'm That KID - Teaching Teens How To Trade", which aims to teach young people how to trade stocks and shares. I enjoyed the vibe in the room while teaching. I led groups aged 8 to 11 year-olds and 12 to 15 year-olds, consisting of around 45-50 individuals. During a group discussion, I asked the group of 8 to 11-year-olds to call out different ways they could make money..., and to my dismay, the following answers were called out by a few eight years olds:

Can you remember a time in your life when you were caught off guard and totally rendered speechless for a moment?... it was at that moment that I realised that the world I'm doing is deeply needed to revive hope and to recondition the hearts and minds of young people. I am a true believer in the power of influence. As a leader, I am committed to transforming the narrative of financial education for young people from deprived backgrounds, which inspired me to write this book. I am not a financial advisor, and I advise that you seek permission from your parent or guardian before actioning the examples in this book.
