  This audiobook will teach you the five most powerful money rules in the world that will change your kid's financial world forever. Financial education is not about teaching kids how to get what they want, it is about teaching them how to get what is worth having. What are your kids learning in school? Are they learning about saving, planning, investing, or becoming leaders? Are they learning how to start their own business or how to become good employees? Are they learning how to manage credit or to accumulate credit card debt? Are they learning how to solve their financial problems or simply accumulate debt until they go bankrupt? Are they learning how to save on taxes or to pay as much taxes as possible? 
  You should think about what your kids are learning every day, because they will grow up fast and the opportunity to help them to become financially prepared will be gone. 
  Own your future. Own your life. Own your money. Most people live their lives with money as their master. Money tells them to go to work. Money makes them get out of bed. Money even makes them lose their hair, gain weight, and stress all day. Should your kids go through the same money problems most adults go through? Should they have to suffer the consequences of a missed education? Why not invest in their future by helping them learn to lead a fulfilling financial life? 
  There are things in life you will have to deal with sooner or later and money is one of them. Learning to manage money will have a profound effect on your kid’s future potential. Waiting for them to grow up to teach them what needs to be done financially is too late. Start now if you want to make a real difference in their lives. Who knows, maybe they’ll grow up to become the next billionaire.

  Patch - The Old Pilot’s Last Trick

  The ships are bigger now. The systems are smarter. The pilots mostly sit back and watch their instruments glow. But when a meteor punches a ten-foot hole through a two-million-ton liner, automation offers no comfort and no solution. 
  “Patch” throws you straight into the command tower at Venusport, where a distress call cuts through the static and pride collides with necessity. Pop Gillette is the kind of pilot people build legends around. He lands his battered ship in ways no one else would dare attempt. He distrusts computers. He insults corporate liners. He lives on stubborn skill and nerve. When an All-Planetary liner calls Mayday, Pop has every reason to let them drift. Instead, he grabs a roll of tape, commandeers a cargo manifest, and steps into open space with hundreds of lives hanging in the balance. 
  What follows is a rescue that feels impossible until it isn’t. The danger isn’t abstract. It’s measured in air pressure, mass, heat, and the brutal physics of vacuum. The problem is simple and unforgiving: seal a ten-foot breach in space before the ship becomes a coffin. The solution will depend on whether one aging pilot still understands ships better than the machines meant to replace him. 
  “Patch” is fast, witty, and sharply grounded in real spacefaring logic. It balances humor with genuine peril and builds toward a single question: when everything is calculated by circuits, who do you trust when the numbers fail?

  Before he wrote the Oz books, L. Frank Baum wrote this book which was the best selling book of 1897. Taking 16 beloved nursery rhymes, he explains their meaning and fascinating history. What is the true story of Little Boy Blue? Why was Mary contrary? 
  As he says in the introduction, "Many of these nursery rhymes are complete tales in themselves, telling their story tersely but completely; there are others which are but bare suggestions, leaving the imagination to weave in the details of the story. Perhaps therein may lie part of their charm, but however that may be I have thought the children might like the stories told at greater length, that they may dwell the longer upon their favorite heroes and heroines. For that reason I have written this book." L. Frank BaumBefore he wrote the Oz books, L. Frank Baum wrote this book which was the best selling book of 1897.

  Pogo Planet

  Pogo Planet by Donald A. Wollheim - Introducing that modest little superman, that shrinking violet of destiny, Ajax Calkins, and a world where you had to hop, in some way, to get where you wanted to go! 
  As my ship hit the darkness that was the outer atmosphere of Midplanet, I thrilled to the thought that I, Ajax Calkins, had at last achieved my rightful place among the pioneers of space. Even when my ship bounced on the green soil, flew end over end upwards to come down ka-plunk in the wrong side of a gooey thick swamp, I exulted that I was the first in possession of a major planet that had been overlooked by the rest of the interplanetary crowd. 
  As I picked myself up from the midst of a pile of miscellaneous equipment, hiking ropes, elephant guns, para-rays, spare shoes and cans of Unifood, and rubbed my bruised arms and head, I thought of how many millions would give their all to be in my place. 
  Midplanet! How the whole system had thrilled when its discovery was finally determined last year! For decades science had known there was a planet between Saturn and Uranus, ever since Pickering had proved the perturbations of those planets' orbits pointed to a body between them. Yet telescopes had always failed to detect it. Few had taken it seriously. Yet, it was there. 
  It was discovered finally by electromagnetic induction coils at the Mars Prime Observatory. It was rechecked from Flagstaff and searched for by Tycho Eye. The latter could not see it. It was still invisible, a strangely dark world. 
  It was then that I conceived my great idea. For years I had secretly nourished my grievance against the world into which I found myself born. All the great heroic acts had been done. The major planets pioneered, Gretelspoon had at last opened up Pluto, and there was nothing left for me to do to show that I too was made of godlike stuff. But Midplanet ... there was my chance!
