Kids look for business ideas when they are too young to have a regular job. It's worth encouraging this! Making their own money builds confidence, develops life skills, and encourages your child to take an interest in mathematics and written English - maths for calculating profit margins, and English for writing marketing materials.

The right kind of business experience when they are young can provide kids with a lifelong ability to make money. This is a priceless asset in today's uncertain economy.

Kids naturally want to earn their own money once they understand what money is and how it works.
Before they are old enough to have a regular job, their only option is to become entrepreneurs, and unlike adults, they are usually not daunted by the prospect.

Here are just a few business ideas for kids:

Household help

Babysitting

Finding lost golf balls

Selling things on eBay

Bartering

Exercising agisted horses

Dog washing/walking/sitting

Breeding rats

You need to start early and work constantly to keep your kids' money attitudes positive.

We've all heard our children complain "I can't", haven't we? And when they are little, it's often true that some tasks are beyond their capability at the time.

What we did was to get our kids to say "I need more practice" (or sometimes "I need to get taller"!) These days, they are all teens and tweens, and we just don't hear "I can't" any more. We sometimes even get the delightfully honest "I could do that if I practiced, but it's too much of a trek and I can't be bothered ..."

The difference between "I can't" and "I choose not to" is priceless.

There is no point finding great business ideas for your kids if they are going to be sitting around saying it's all too hard - the business ideas will never be implemented. Focus on their mental attitude, and then their businesses - and their entire lives - will reap the benefits!

Kids Money Articles Review by Jenny Ford

Students have a lot of worries especially regarding their future after the completion of their degree. They have to secure a good job in their own field and not just anywhere. Students tend to get depressed as the companies start coming to their college campuses for placements. Getting tensed is not the solution to the problem. In fact it aggravates the problem.

Students need to prepare well for the placement papers of the reputed companies. The multinational companies like Infosys, Wipro, HR, TCS, HCL and Satyam Computers usually have tough selection procedures. Their placement papers are lengthy and difficult. The placement test papers pattern consists of a written test accompanies by group discussion and Technical / HR interviews. The written test may consist of technical questions, aptitude, reasoning, quantitative, mathematics questions and English language verbal or non verbal questions. Thus there are various sections in these employment exam papers. Different students may find different test sections to be difficult depending upon their abilities. For example a student weak in mathematics may find it very difficult while another student may find mathematics questions to be very easy. All this depends upon the student's initial years education. A person who has not learned English language may find English verbal section be very difficult even if its quite easy.

Don't think that another student has a better brain than you and he / she is superior than you. It all depends upon the actual time when the test starts. Some intelligent and well prepared students just cant manage at the exam time while other students who are normally not that knowledgeable manage to attempt all the questions. One can never guess whether a particular student will succeed in the recruitment test or not. Reading placement papers is a must for success and understanding the written test patterns gives you an advantage over your rivals.
