British schoolboy rejects £5MILLION offer for money-saving website after starting first business in bedroom aged 12


This is article is from the The Mirror and is about a 16 year old boy, Mohammed that created a site designed to alert both buyers and sellers of available products, everything from properties to electronic items, with constantly updated prices. He and his business partner met with investors who offered him £5 million but he rejected the offer as he believes he could make even more once the site actually launches. At 12 years old, he created a video game which earned him £30,000. He also created a financial app. Mohammed taught himself everything he needed in order to create these things just from watching videos online and reading books. Altogether mohammed estimates he's made £41,000 from his businesses.
This is a representation of age as he's only in college and doing so good for himself. I think its really amazing how at only 16 years old he's already achieved so much while juggling a-levels. There are so many people our age including myslef that get lazy with work and he's doing extra work in his spare time. I can barely keep up with weekly news so i think this is a very inspiring story for people our age.
