About this title

Synopsis

Helping young people find their path to a successful future―with or without college

College isn't right for everyone. And as tuition costs continue to rise, more and more young people―from straight-A students to the not-so-avid pupils―are choosing an alternative to the 4-year degree. Yet there is little support to help them find their track to a promising future beyond the classroom.

Make Your Own Lunch empowers and guides young people as they search for their answer to the age-old question: "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Readers discover new ways to pursue their interests and gain experience through travel, philanthropy, and more.

About the Author

At age 21, Ryan Porter dropped out of college to try to answer the question "what do I want to be when I grow up?". The quest for an answer brought him to Japan, Slovakia, Honduras, Austria, Nicaragua, Guatemala, the Czech Republic and more. He quickly discovered that there's more than one question to ask as we make decisions about our future and that there are a bunch of answers. His philosophy is: Young people don't need to have all of the answers by the time they graduate high school, or college for that matter. They need to be encouraged to explore the possibilities and get excited about something... anything. He is CEO and Co-founder of www.raiseyourflag.com and highly sought after speaker for youth and educators.
