I am not a financial guru or a real estate tycoon. I have made mistakes in my investments, but mostly I have made some money. I have no axe to grind, other than the conviction that the financial well being of our youth is in jeopardy. 

I have spent my adult life making a living in the baking industry. I must have been successful, because my retirement is financially stress free. Not knowing how not to work, after retirement I had a retail computer store for 4 years and I was a tour guide for 5 years.

However, during that same time period since retirement, I have bicycled across the United States via Canada, hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon numerous times, vacationed in Mexico and Europe, traveled to the southern Pacific and hiked the trail to Machu Picchu in Peru. I have fished for Marlin in the Sea of Cortez and vacationed with my kids and their families throughout the USA and Mexico.

Aside from the vacations, everything that I mention above, I have done with at least one of my kids as traveling companions.

There is nothing in this book that you do not know, but it does focus on those bits of knowledge, which strung together, will help the youngsters in your family become analytical thinkers, critical analyzers and as a result financially secure and in control of their future. That is wealth.
