How much profit can you make starting with one dollar of capital?  That is just one of the challenges that Long Island entrepreneurship educator George Haines has laid out to his K-8 students.  The former gym teacher has switched his focus to entrepreneurship, and he has developed business-themed curricula for each grade level, starting all the way down at kindergarten, where students use a computer simulation program to develop a computer game for fellow school-aged children.  For the older students, George arranges field trips to New York City tech startups to get them acclimated to the possibilities that are out there for them as they go through high school and college.  George talks with “The American Entrepreneur” Ron Morris about his program, and how no age is “too young” to learn about entrepreneurship.
