Hello,

My name is Mitch and I am fourteen years old. I currently run/operate my company, DreamScapes Landscaping out of Central Illinois.

Its a small, well-run company, with myself as the owner and operator. As of right now, I maintenance about twenty properties a week, and do a ton of other landscape maintenance services (aerating, bushes, landscape installs, etc.). With my grandma at the wheel, I was really able to grow my business last year, and hope to grow a little more this year. I have recently purchased my first truck, and I get my drivers permit in about two weeks, allowing me to drive with an adult/parent.

My future plans are to grow my business tremendously when I get my license. Doing double the work but working only about fifteen hours/week. I then plan on getting into the snow division, to keep me busy during the winter.

I plan on making this my career, but don't plan on developing a huge company. I would like to keep my company some-what simple, with maybe two trucks. I would also like to get into real estate (mainly investing).

Thanks for having me!

-Mitch-

Sounds like you're off to a great start, Mitch.

As time goes by though, I'm sure you'll realize that developing a huge company might not be that bad of an idea. I've never heard anyone complaining about getting paid for other people doing work under them.
