So I’ve recently started a nonfiction book project and I need your help. The title of the book is Generation (Know) Now: Real Life Lessons Graduates Don’t Have to Learn the Hard Way.
Is there any real lesson in life you had to learn the hard way because they didn’t teach you in high school? I’m not talking about being nice to people or being positive. But what about how to balance your check book? What is social security? How to get a credit card? How to live on a budget? What kind of insurance do I need?
There are millions of middle American teens who can’t afford a college education and get “thrown” into the real world right out of high school. Most of us have been there, but were any of us prepared? I’m not saying a book can teach you everything about life, but it may help you to face some of the obstacles a little easier.
So, can you think of a “real life” lesson that maybe you learned the hard way? If so, email it to generationknownow@gmail.com .
