LEARN HOW THIS CHILD SET UP HIS OWN BUSINESS
I recently learned about a child who has set up his own business designing and manufacturing socks using positive affirmations.
As you may know, I encourage my own child to make money. I believe that encouraging children and showing them that they can create their own income should they choose, is an important part of creating a healthy relationship with money for them.
Children are naturally creative and sometimes have some fantastic ideas. Great inventions need research and I wrote a post recently about where you can get help with making money from inventions which you can read here.
So, back to the child who designs his own socks……..
Nine year old Safin started his designs for Socky Wocky at his kitchen table and now has a website, http://www.sockywocky.co.uk/ where he sells his “really cool, bright and fun socks”.
Safin’s mum does all the admin, but the ideas and designs, including the company logo come from Safin himself.
I had the privilege of interviewing this intelligent young man to find out more. Read on to hear more about Safin in his own words. Prepare to be inspired!
