Hey all,

my name is Troy im from Hertfordshire, im 16

I am very much planning to open up a company, i was looking along the lines of a Private limited company.

one obstacle i cannot seem to overcome as such- is age (irony? :P)

from what i understand is as i am 16, i cannot sign up my "imaginary" company for ebay/paypal because you have to agree to be 16, but to that, if i got my aunt/someone to do the "agreeing" etc, (if the bank is in the company name?)
it should be no problem?

thanks,

P.s. sorry bit of a offtopic introduction

i hope i can learn lots about what i want to do, and how to go about it form this forum.

also - i dont have the guts to ask my family, im not sure if its because i think they will think its funny/not take it seriously, or if they are negitive towards the idea?
