Should a 17 year old start an online business?
I am a 17 year old who wants to start an online business. Since last year, I’ve been thinking of selling dietary supplements on eBay. I need some advice on whether or not to actually do this. can anyone help?
I wish I would have started when I was 17 I probably would have been retired by now. E-bay is a good way to make money but there is so much compitition on it that it might not be the best way to go. I would start a website for the products, you can always find way;s to promote a website, and sell the same product on E-bay now you have two way’s of selling the product.

Good Luck

Definately, don’t let your age stop you. If this is your dream or even if it is a stepping stone to your dreams… do it and don’t let nobody hold you back!

In order to enter into any contractural relationship with anyone else you need to be 18. Technically minors are not legally responsible for their actions, so no one enters into any business arrangements with them. You would be turned down by suppliers since you are underage, and if you’re selling anything that someone COULD get sick from eating or taking, you’ll probably need some liability insurance to make sure you don’t get sued–another impossibility until you are 18.

Why not?
If you have a sound plan. and since you are going out on e-bay
not a lot of risk, and add products as your capital improves. There is no reason not to try.
Good Luck I hope u make millions
