"We believe that through economic empowerment, you give people choices in their lives."

John Bryant grew up in South Central Los Angeles, and while he's founded his own group of companies, and been named one of Time's "50 Most Promising Leaders of the Future," he knows what it means to struggle financially. Now, as founder and chairman of Operation HOPE, he focuses on educating young people about money. The Banking on the Future program has already reached 87,000 students in over 350 schools nationwide, and the number is climbing.

Now you too can have access to the lessons of the award winning Banking on the Future program. Here are some of the important things you will learn from this book.

How to talk with your kids about money

How to keep track of your family's money with a family financial ledger

How to teach you ten year old about banks and have fun at the same time

Why saving, even a little money every week, is so important

When it's the right time for your teen to have a checking account

How to set financial goals with your kids, whether they're six or sixteen

Credit, budgeting, investing, car payments, and more

Banking on Our Future is the financial planner you and your family can't afford to be without. Clear, frank, and always inspiring, this book will help you and your children plan a healthier and happier financial future.

"John Bryant uses conversational, non-threatening language to engage the reader into thinking about and adopting workable personal financial strategies." —Kweisi Mfume, NAACP, President and CEO

"Teaching the fundamentals of finance to children and families is an instrumental and positive step in increasing ownership and responsibility among middle and lower class families. As such, I believe that this book, and its program, will serve as an important resource from which communities can declare their financial independence." —Rep.Charles B. Rangel
