The first thing you should do is see if there are live poker leagues in your area and take him there to get his feet wet. He needs to learn how to read people. This is crucial. A LOT of people in my poker league have brought their kids to play.  Before you do that, make sure you teach him what the good, trash, and trouble hands are. Teach him what cards to play in what position.

Also teach you're son about bankroll management. If he can understand this, he will understand how to run a business as for as managing capital.

Teach him to use his poker winnings to become an entrepreneur (starting a business) and invest in something (real estate, stocks, etc) that is going to bring in income. Teach him about taxes on gambling. The U.S. Federal takes 42% of gambling winnings. Vegas doesn't have income tax.

Also teach him that aside from Blackjack and Poker, playing any other type of casino game is a suckers bet. Make sure he understands the discipline.

I'm currently teaching my 15 year old cousin how to play. I want to make sure that she can make her own money, without having to depend on someone. I'm teaching her bankroll management, when she should pay herself, how much to save and spend after paying herself. All the stuff I've mentioned above is what I'm doing.
