Default Kids, get rich quick

I just discovered this kids get rich quick thing

This has to be a scam, written to get kids to fork over the cash. That is so rude!

Terrible. It's bad enough focusing get rich quick schemes at adults who should know better, but this takes the cake.

Kids and money has been on my mind for a while. I have posted several articles on my blog about this topic. I also posted some links. You may want to check it out.

Also, you may want to check out Neale Godfrey's website at http://www.childrensfinancialnetwork.com. I have read a couple of her books.

Anyway, I hope this helps.
