Ok, I am curious as to what age you all started at. You are welcome to share your real age or not, poll is set up so it puts you in a category. I am just curious as to the answers.

This poll is not for people just offering services however people who are an established business. Does not matter if you are a Freelancer or a Firm.

Also, how much expirence did you have prior to becoming an established business?

I started offering web design and development services for others a few months back. Probably Novemeber, I started offering services since I was 18 and have completed a lot of projects. There has not been any problems since me offering services that were not handled in a professional way.

I started designing websites in 2003 and moving my way in professional creativity. I took classes in 2005-2007 and got more than 1 award for creative ability. I have also won a state championship and came in 3rd place.

Why no option on the poll for people younger than that, they can still operate a registered business.

Really? That's news to me.

In the US a minor can not enter into a legally binding contract...I find it hard to believe that a minor could register and run a business when that entails contracts. Are you by chance in another country? I'm only familiar with US law but am always interested in hearing how other countries do things.

100% self employed, pay sucks but the hours are great. Plus all the perks. I mean the new travel trail, the ups and downs. Take the bitter with the sweet.
