Jack Bonneau is possibly the youngest entrepreneur ever. This kid took selling lemonade to a whole new level when he wanted to buy Legos. Jack needed a way to make 400 dollars for a Lego set he wanted, so he set up a lemonade stand and made 900 in three months. He realized he may have something bigger than Legos however, and began to branch out. He set up more stands around the Denver area and in his breakout year he made 15,000 dollars at age 10. He is trying to expand even more and enter into different states. Jack is really a phenomenon not only because he is so young but because of how quickly his company has grown. He morphed it into something called “Jacks Stands and Marketplace.” Jack now lets other kids run their own stand under his brand and he personally teaches them how to sell and think like an entrepreneurial, and again he is 10 years old. I do not remember what I was doing when I was 10 but it certainly was not owning my own majorly successful company.
I did a presentation last year in high school about the fat the business is something everyone is born driven to do and it is in everyone’s blood. Its great that age is not being a factor anymore in being a serious entrepreneur
