Lemonade Stand Economics: A Refreshing Way to Pay for College
Lemonade Stand Economics teaches high school students how to work for themselves and graduate from college without student loans. Learn to make $15, $20 or even $50 per hour working for yourself and pay for college one semester at a time. It's not hard if you know what to do, but that's the problem. As a high school student you just don't know where to start. Lemonade Stand Economics shows you what you do... and where to start. There is a problem in America - some say an epidemic - called student loan debt. High school students want to attend college but most don't have the money set aside to pay for it. Most take out student loans for four years, graduate, and start off their adult life in debt. Often times starting their adult lives with massive debt. These students are not stupid or lazy, in fact they are quite smart and energetic, but they don't know where to start or what to do to earn enough money to pay for college. They don't need that job slapping sandwiches together for minimum wage and going home smelling like bologna and pickles. That's not going to pay for college The typical college student graduates with $26,000 in student loans. The typical college graduate takes over 17 years to pay off their student loans. You don't have to be typical With a good plan you can pay for college without student loans or money from your parents. Lemonade Stand Economics will teach you how to set goals, budget, advertise, market, price jobs, and serve up a steamin' hot plate of fantastic customer service. Once in this money making rhythm you will make enough to pay for college and graduate with no debt. Let your little brother run the lemonade stand now, it's time to make some real money.

About the Author
Geof White began working when he was 14 years old for $3.35/hour. When he graduated from high school four years later, he was earning $50/hour and paid for his college degree from Michigan State University by working for himself cleaning windows. As a teenager he marketed, advertised, and provided the best customer service he could to every customer. After graduating from college, he worked for ten years as an employee...putting profits in other people's pockets. Now Geof owns his own businesses putting the profits in his own pocket. In the past ten years Geof's businesses have provided employment to over 30 families and has experienced double digit growth even in economically challenging times. Now, Geof White is on a mission...to teach students how to work for themselves so they can graduate from college debt-free. Geof wrote Lemonade Stand Economics starting with one thought, "If a high school student did what I did to make money with some guidance and without making the same mistakes I did, paying for college would be easy." He takes his personal experience as a teen working for himself, mixes in his life experience, his business acumen and a pitcher full of passion to provide students a sweet recipe for a debt-free degree.
