Started my own cleaning business at 17. Used my contracts that I had to collateralize a small business loan for $15K(contracted to clean schools and office buildings during the summer's). Paid my small bus. loan back after one year, and I sold all my contracts when I turned 21. I made enough to pay the rest of my college costs plus a new car and plenty for the stock market. Best practical business experience of my life (at that time). To owe nothing coming out of school was fantastic. It was a b!tch being that responsible at such an early age, but it was worth the sacrifice. I guess that is why I acted on the urge to start my own business later in life.
