ADM3396
Truly a great class for someone interested in starting his/her own business. Very practical and realistic, and a lot of hands-on work involving presentations and business models/plans. Relatively small class, which made it that much more personal. Professor brought lots of his own stories and experiences into the classroom and it was an eye-opening experience.
- Anon
It was great to see the passion and ambition that other students have within the Telfer School of Management and the Engineering Faculty. It's a good experience to see students actually applying what they learn in University and take their dream to the next step this early in their life.
- Ms. Lara Al-Hussayni
ADM 3396 is one of the best classes I've taken in University. It will give you skills which you can use throughout the rest of your life.
- Mr. Benjamin Butty
This was my favorite course that I have taken in my four years of education. Even if you are not an entrepreneur, its a very interesting course, and Professor Firestone has a lot of interesting stories.
- Mr. Jason Sones
The class was good because the Prof is concerned with learning and understanding not just teaching/showing. I think the biggest difference a Prof can make is taking time to get to know and understand their students. Prof Bruce does this very well.
- Mr. Darren Chan
ADM 3396 - Entrepreneurialist Culture - is a course unlike any other. You're not learning the material, you are living it. And this is the best teaching experience a student could ask for - learning by doing. I am an engineering student that, before the class, had very little business experience. This class provided me with invaluable learning experience and a strong business foundation that will last me a lifetime.
- Mr. Patrick Trahan
ADM 3396 is a spontaneous and exciting class! You never know what to expect next! This class gives you hope and confidence to think outside the box, to pursue your dreams and to reach for the sky. The concepts and advice you learn and receive are indispensable and will be useful for your future projects and endeavors! Lots of networking opportunities!
- Miss Dania Balaa
Not sure I have testimonial but you are more than welcome to put my twitter down and ask anyone to ask me online. I support this class fully and completely.

John Walsh, Founder of OREIO, leads the class through the Cashflow Game on March 10, 2010:

CASHFLOW® 101 teaches you how to get out of the Rat Race and onto the Fast Track, where your money works for you instead of you working hard for your money. CASHFLOW® 101 is an educational board game that teaches accounting, finance, and investing at the same time - and makes learning fun.

Briefest possible description, "Monopoly on steroids."

Most people initially play the game the same way they approach their own finances. It is quite fascinating to watch people learn and discover a new way of looking at money. To coin an old phrase, for some, it will be a "paradigm shift".

Mr. Walsh will start with an overview of the Rich Dad philosophy and what is meant by the term Cashflow and/or passive income: Capital vs Cashflow (Rich vs Wealthy).
