Hey kid, it’s time to become a teenvestor!

If you are a parent who is looking for information about how to get your child interested in investing and entrepreneurship, then I have found a great website for you, Teenvestor.com (www.teenvestor.com) — the most comprehensive website for young investors.

About Teenvestor

The goals of this website are to:

  • Teach young people how to become life-long investors;
  • Expose teens to entrepreneurship;
  • Help parents encourage their children to become investors and entrepreneurs;
  • Help teachers expose their students to basic economic and business concepts.

Emmanuel Modu and Andrea Walker, the creators of this site, are the authors of three books about Teenvestors:

1. Mad Cash: A First Timer’s Guide to Investing $30 to $3,000 (Penguin/Perigee 2003)

2. TeenVestor: The Practical Investment Guide for Teens and Their Parents (Penguin/Perigee 2002)

3. The Lemonade Stand: A Guide To Encouraging The Entrepreneur In Your Child (Gateway Publishers 1992)

The creators have spent the past 12 years writing about young people in business and teaching young people about investing and entrepreneurship.  Do your child a favor and encourage them to read these books.  In fact, read them for yourselves and teach these principles to your children.

For more information, please visit http://www.teenvestor.com.
