About the Author
Since the age of 12, Mark has been a natural entrepreneur. Selling garbage bags door to door, the seed was planted early on for what would eventually become long-term success. Cuban is now an American billionaire businessman, investor, film producer, author, television personality, philanthropist, and serial entrepreneur. He is the owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks, Landmark Theaters, and Magnolia Pictures, and the chairman of AXS TV. He is also a "shark" investor on ABC's hit primetime television show Shark Tank. Cuban is also the author of the bestseller How To Win At The Sport of Business
Shaan Patel
Shaan has always been an entrepreneur at heart. In elementary school, he sold Pokemon cards. In middle school, he sold music CDs. In high school, he made thousands off internet referrals. In college, he made tens of thousands selling used iPhones on eBay. After achieving a perfect-score on the SAT, Shaan found his real business: Prep Expert - a test-prep company offering SAT & ACT Prep classes in 20 cities and online. Shaan appeared on Shark Tank to pitch Prep Expert and closed an investment deal with Mark Cuban. Patel is also author of multiple bestselling SAT & ACT prep books.
Ian McCue

The book has a really conversational tone, so kids can actually get through it without dozing off, but the lessons they convey are pretty prophetic for all of us. Here are some examples:
1. Hustle. Stop expecting hand outs. Do the work.
2. Just start. Stop with the 200 page business plans. Get your hands dirty and dive in.
3. Be obsessed with your goals. Casually wanting something isn't enough.
Honestly, a lot of adults I know need to be slapped over the head with this book. Our kids loved it too and have plans to launch their next business.

Honestly, a lot of adults I know need to be slapped over the head with this book. Our kids loved it too and have plans to launch their next business.
Its simple yet thorough guide to creating your own business, great ideas for kid businesses, and insightful interviews with the owners of real life kid businesses demonstrate that with hard work and dedication anyone can be a successful businessman or businesswoman. For those of you who want to inspire ambition in your kids, this book is a must buy. How Any Kid Can Start a Business offers a strong foundation for any future entrepreneur.
As a parent, I don't want to raise men with a mindset for a 9-5 job but rather offer a wide array of opportunities for their futures, and IF they choose the 9-5 job, at least they knew what their options were.

However, (my own fault for not realising the signs on the cover) but this is in dollars and not GBPs so a bit out of touch for the British kids as all references are American.
