5.0 out of 5 stars A Teen's View, April 22, 2000
This book, though easy to read and not very long, contains some of the most incredible things I have ever read. The ideas are so simple, yet they leave quite an impact. Making contacts, trying out jobs, and thinking about what you really want to be are just some of the things Foster covers in this great book. Buy it for your kids, your grandkids, or any young adult you know because this book will help them throughout the rest of their lives!

4.0 out of 5 stars Classroom use, December 9, 1999
By 
Noelle Baker (Chadron, Nebraska) - See all my reviews
Currently I am using this book in my speech class with 10-12 graders. Their reviews are mixed. Some are turned off and feel he is bragging, but they are in the minority. Most are intrigued by his ideas and are willing to rise to his challenge. They especially enjoy learning the art of conversation and the panel discussion with community leaders.

4.0 out of 5 stars Real stuff for the real world!, November 23, 1999
Calling all teens.....Do you want to know what it really takes to make it in the real world? The secrets that are in this book, you won't get in any school. I believe that the principles in this book have helped me along the way.

Chad Fostor is a wonderful businessman who made his money very early in life. He gives credit to his people skills.

This book will go over some things that you probably not even heard or thought about. Read this book with an open mind. May this book give you some guidance about how to make a network of friends and cultivate great relationships while you are young.
