aM i too young to make money?
Starring Jack Squat, Age 11
Jack Squat has big ideas and zero dollars. His teacher spent three weeks explaining what a "market economy" is and never once mentioned how to actually earn money. His dad says it doesn't grow on trees. The sofa cushions yielded one grape.
So Jack goes to the one person who always has answers: Pops McGee, asleep on the porch. In three words on a napkin — SALES. COST. PROFIT. — everything changes. But can Jack actually apply it? Spoiler: first attempt, he loses 75 cents. Second attempt, with Freckles and her colour-coded notebook? A completely different story.
WHAT KIDS LEARN IN BOOK 1
📦 What a business actually needs
A product, customers, a price, and a cost. Freckles' Four Things, in that order.
💸 Sales, Cost and Profit
The difference between money coming in and money going out is the only number that actually matters.
🔢 Run the numbers FIRST
Jack learned this the hard way. Know your cost before you spend a single cent. Ask his missing 75¢.
🤝 When to ask for help
Knowing what you don't know, and finding the right people is its own kind of smart.
