Not long ago, Todd Green of TTVJaudio.com got ripped off to the tune of about $24,000! That's a huge loss for a small business to absorb. It really hurt Todd.

The magic bullet, it seems to me, is finding an engaging project that teens can throw themselves into and call their own. One that can make a few bucks is a big bonus.

Here's one such success story...
