Jim Egan is the author of a revolutionary book.The High School Graduates Owner's Manual .He spent a lot of time working with young people and observing what makes them tick before he decided to put that experience to work for high school students and their parents with the release of The High School Graduates Owner’s Manual. Jim wore the uniform of a Scout Leader for 8 years as his son Jay went from Tiger Cubs through reaching the rank of Star Scout in the BSA.  Over the years, Jim served as a Den Leader, Cub Master, and Boy Scout Troop Leader.  Jim also served 10 years as the Co-President of the housing board for a fraternity in Madison, WI, and also as an advisor to fraternity members Jim’s take: the time to be aware of many of the topics in the book were before huge mistakes were made shortly after high school due to lack of supervision, combined with a lack of experience/knowledge, and peer pressure from uninformed friends and influencers.  The idea for The High School Graduates Owner’s Manual came next. The High School Graduates Owner's Manual will provide the Graduate with tips, shortcuts and clues to help make smarter decisions for the transition from adolescence to adulthood.   Please check out this website https://gradgiftnow.com/ to peruse the Chapter contents and the Chapter Summaries. Many aspects of grown-up life are examined, including investing, credit, college, reputation, giving back, and more. Jim also writes a blog for parents, available here https://gradgiftnow.com/blogs/news
