Young entrepreneurship

I started writing my daily blog about the market volatility, but then my 11 year old sister called with a proposal. She wants me to help her sell her colored bands that she made this weekend. Her goal is to make enough money to buy me a Tesla for my birthday next month.

While really cute, I’m actually pretty impressed by her entrepreneurship and thought this could be a great learning experience for her. I started my own business around her age burning CDs and movies and selling it to my classmates.

It’s never easy giving up your weekend plans, but I thought this was a good opportunity for her to learn how business works and I should support her rather than put it down.

Maybe one day she’ll actually buy me a Tesla.
