I started my first business at 13, creating a payroll program for a company that paid me in computer time instead of cash.

I started programming at maybe 15.

I started programming at a young age, which built my confidence and set me on a path to entrepreneurship, showing that early experiences can be crucial for future success.

During my childhood, I didn't engage in much entrepreneurial activity, but I learned to use a computer early on and made money fixing computers for friends and family.

I founded my first company in middle school and started inDinero from my UC Berkeley dorm room while studying computer science.

A university student in India learned to code using Replit on his Android phone, allowing him to earn more money than his entire family would make in a year through programming tasks.

I had experiences in childhood that were rare, like exposure to computers, which gave me thousands of hours of programming experience.

I noticed that many local businesses had poor websites, so I decided to leverage my skills and help them improve their online presence while making some money in high school.

I started investing at a young age, motivated by my parents' encouragement and the opportunity to build a portfolio on Yahoo Finance during the dot-com boom.
