Tony Wagner suggests that there are survival skills that we teachers can implant in students.

Why not start with Initiative and Entrepreneuring.   

Here's a simple lesson plan

Objective:  Make sure every student with a gmail account gets an Adsense account.
Why?  Adsense pays the gmail account owner for hits to YouTube videos.

Materials:  Access to a bank account (and almost every student is eligible for a free account at most banks).

Steps:
a.  get a gmail account
b.  get a bank account
c.  link the bank account to the gmail account
