    What should I do

    Im 15 but I'm leaving school in a few months. I want to start my own business or maybe just a website if I don't leave school. I have a vast knowledge of football(soccer) golf and video games. I would prefer it to be sport orientated. Any ideas on what I could do is appreciated
    thanks in advance

    Hi Spiersey,

    Are you saying you're graduating, leaving for the summer, or quitting school altogether? If it's the latter, I'd encourage you to reconsider. While there is a lot of debate on whether college is important to be a successful entrepreneur, I don't think you'll find many people who would disagree that you should have at least a high school education. Of course there are people who become successful without it, but they are the exception, and they had to fight an uphill battle that isn't necessary for most. Obviously I don't know your whole story, but there are enough challenges as a young entrepreneur without adding one that you are easily able to avoid.

    If you meant that you're graduating or leaving for the summer, never mind all of that, and good for you for wanting to pursue your entrepreneurial dreams! I'd recommend starting a blog on whatever you're most passionate about. From there, you'll meet people who can help you build your business and monetize your efforts. And of course keep asking your questions here in the forum.

    Good luck to you, and keep us posted.

    To your success!
    John

    I agree with John that a blog is going to be your best bet right now. If you can get some ads running on it you might be able to bring in decent money if you have a bunch of followers!

    That's very best way to start.
    Especially with your knowledge in sport.
