Customer Reviews

Wonderful Book

The author gives wonderful advice on taking actions to make your child a multi-millionaire. The advice is very simple and some of it just take a visit to your bank after work. Some of the information in this book changes over time but that isn't something you should worry about. This book is for people who love their kids and realize that it is much easier to make your kids and your grandkids worth seven figures than it is for you to make yourself a millionaire in your lifetime. Two thumbs up to Mr. McKinley.

A book to give yourself a kick in the pants!

This has been a wonderful book for me. Kevin McKinley's writing and advice have given me the tools and the motivation to start my son's education fund, write a will, review my life insurance, and so much more. Everything is laid out in plain and concise language which makes it very easy to follow and implement his suggestions. Plus, he explains why it's so important to do these things and how to start NOW! Thanks to Mr. McKinley for writing the perfect financial planning book for busy parents.

The Best Bet for Parents!

I received this book as a late Christmas present and think it should be a mandatory read for all parents, of children young and old. I'm still unclear as to what my own parents were thinking when we were growing up regarding our financial future. I know now they didn't create college funds or wedding funds or life insurance plans for us. This book shows how parents -- no matter the income level, resources, desires for the kids' futures -- can invest and save for the next generations. I like the way the author writes - it's witty and clever without being silly and trite. And the suggestions are crafted in a way that makes follow-up easy and manageable, even for a novice like myself. I highly recommend!

An Excellent Book for Parents

This a thoughtful, well-organized, humorous, motivator of a book. McKinley has great insight into the mind of the busy parent. His book provides a simple, no-nonsense guide to starting the investments we all know we should make for our kids. Those hesitant to read an entire book about financial matters will be relieved to know that McKinley's sense of humor and writing style actually make his book an enjoyable read.

A Must-Have For All Parents

It's hard to find a book that's both fun and easy to read, AND worth the price 100x over, but I found one in Make Your Kid a Millionaire. It should be required reading for all expectant parents, but it's nice to know that if you didn't start saving from Day 1, you can start when your child is 8 or 10 and still have a profound impact on their financial future (and the future of your childrens' children). The title is somewhat misleading, as this book will benefit parents as much as it will benefit their children. The best $... investment I've made!
