Billionaire Boy Worksheets

[Frauke Vilandre]

Startwith the big themes that interest your class. Talk about the issues they might feel from the book. Children can worry about being lonely and others not liking them this is always a good place to start and let the kids in your class know that it is a safe space to talk about anything bothering them. Right from Billionaire boy chapter one, you can start discussing the effects of these issues.

The Billionaire Boy plot is quite a unique story and allows the children to understand the characters before any action happens. This means you can use the first few chapters of the book to settle the class into the reading and teach some nice calm starter lessons.

If you are thinking about how to develop the reading into a lesson, I would start by reading a Billionaire boy extract to the class and talking about what happened, discuss any main points and moving on to developing into the lesson.

There are so many topics, many teachers dismiss this book as light, but there are so many topics to explore. The idea of making friends and being lonely is important and can be explored for PSHE lessons. You can use the amount of money he has and develop it into maths lessons. Expanding into word problems and puzzle solving.

But where Billionaire Boy really shines is with literacy learning. The chapters can be used to teach so many different concepts and topics, Letter writing, story development, play scripts, Billionaire Boy character descriptions, newspaper work, figurative language even dictionary work. Every chapter of Billionaire Boy can be used to teach literacy topics.

I have lessons available for every chapter of the book, each including Billionaire boy lesson plans, PowerPoints, activities and worksheets. Takes all the stress out of planning and teaching this book.

Anyone that has been here for a while will know how much a fan I am of David Walliams. I think Billionaire boy is a wonderful book to use with your class. It is warm and funny and engaging while still challenging developing readers.

There are other themes as well such as the importance of sharing and appreciating gifts, these are touched on several times throughout the book but I mainly use the friendship theme when reading with the class.

In the first activity students focus on six statements related to the article they read before the lesson. They read some short texts and paraphrase the underlined phrases in them, using their own words (e.g. pave the way, pushback, a scramble for). Then, students engage in a discussion. They read the texts again and decide whether they agree with the opinions expressed in them or not. They also need to justify their points of view. The lesson finishes with a reflection on space tourism, which gives students the opportunity to share their preferences and personal opinions on the topic.

I have seen many headlines in the last few weeks about the Bloomberg Report telling the world that Taylor Swift is a billionaire. When they discuss how they came to this conclusion it becomes clear that a mistake has been made. Everyone reporting this has confused the concept of earning a billion dollars over a lifetime with having a net worth of a billion dollars. Without talking with Taylor Swift or her accountant, no one could know her actual net worth.

Physicians deal with this issue as well. We earn a very high income, yet due to high debt and spending, we could have a negative net worth. In fact, I recently met a physician who had been earning $800,000 a year for the previous ten years. According to the Bloomberg calculations, they might say he is worth $8M. Yet, his net worth is near zero. He spent the money as fast as it came in.

When looking into the Taylor Swift story, the only thing they discussed that could be considered part of her net worth (an asset) was her music catalog, which is estimated to be worth about $500M. Everything else that was listed was something she had earned (income). At best, they could only estimate how much of those earnings belonged to her and how much was spent on overhead in producing that income. There was also no mention of her ongoing expenses, which are crucial to calculating an amassed net worth.

There is no question that what Taylor has done is remarkable. She has earned over a billion dollars making music. I am a musician who used to earn money playing music in a local band. But local musicians do not make much money. Only a few musicians make it big like Taylor has.

Side gigs are becoming popular to those working in the medical field. About one third of doctors do something to earn money outside of medicine. Yet very few physicians need to have a side gig. They make enough money to live a very good life while saving for retirement. But they feel the need to have a side gig to earn even more money, to have an even more expensive lifestyle.

The same thing happens to the big stars in music. Once they make a name for themselves and have a platform, they can get endorsement deals or start another brand and their following will spend money on their recommendations. These include clothing lines, beauty products, alcohol, fragrances, restaurants, and books.

Taylor did not cross the billion-dollar earnings mark by using side gigs. She did it with her main gig, music. She has used many ways to capitalize on her music: royalties as a song writer and as a performer, concert revenue, selling her merchandise at live events, filming her concert and releasing it as a movie, cutting out the middleman who distributes the movies and instead going straight to the theaters, and re-recording her old albums that others own so she has full ownership and control.

Physicians should take this to heart. If we want to earn a greater income as a physician, there are things we can do with our skills that can boost income: being available to take consults; working extra shifts; negotiating a production bonus; getting a signing bonus; having student loans paid by employers; moonlighting; providing ancillary services in the office such as ECGs, audiology, x-rays, ultrasound, vascular studies, EEG, sleep studies; and more.

All of these listed activities are extensions we can use to get more income from our services just like Taylor has been using to make more income from her music. If you really think you need something else, check out the book, The Doctors Guide to Smart Career Alternatives and Retirement.
