Four friends. One project. A lifetime of lessons.
When Leon, Beatriz, Cari, and Amelia are asked to create their own businesses for a school assignment, they dive in headfirst. Skateboard repairs, bracelet-making, dog walking, and gardening - each idea sparks excitement, but reality quickly sets in. Materials cost money. Customers can be hard to find. Risks are everywhere.
From tough choices about borrowing money to the frustration of losing profits, every setback feels real. But with determination - and some smart thinking - the friends also experience the thrill of earning their own cash, paying off debts, and even planning ahead.
Because this isn't just about now. It's about the future. Budgets, taxes, savings, and investments all come into play, leading the friends to the ultimate question: how do the choices you make today shape the life you'll have at retirement?
