Is it possible for a 17 year old to start a business?

Sorry to sound harsh, but if you need to ask on an internet forum if its possible, then you are going to fail if you try it so I would get on the phone to Kentucky Fried Chicken and find alternative employment.

 

if you are dedicated and have a good idea, you should go for it

 

You won't care about your CV if your business takes off to a certain extent where you don't need to fill out another job application in your life.

 

Yup, a job is just a means to an end [More money], not an end in itself.

 

it's okay.. if you had a brighter future than your part time job
many success business man start their own business when they're young.. such Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg (the facebook owner)..

if you 100% sure about your business, then why not ?

 

And [More money] is a means to and end as well -- when you really think about it.
