FamZoo.com Short Video Review

 

Today I had the honor of working with Bill Dwight from FamZoo.com. FamZoo initially impressed me as an excellent online teaching tool for educating kids on how to handle money properly. My first thought:

“Maybe we could drop this off at the Whitehouse since it seems as though folks on both sides of the political spectrum act like kiddo’s with money.”

But I digress. Upon download of the software, which was insanely easy and fast, I put together a short review video of the business, philosophy, and program in-use for your evaluation so…enjoy!

Crush It!: Why NOW Is the Time to Cash In on Your Passion (Paperback)- this is an excellent book by Gary Vaynerchuk that I highly recommend for your kiddo that might not be good in a formal college setting or classroom and how those kiddos can be equally and sometimes more successful than those with degrees.  I’ve read this twice and love it.  FPN is being built with Gary’s basic principles in mind.
