Children as young as seven are looking beyond pocket money or a Saturday job to run lucrative side hustles
Most adults look back on their childhood earnings and think of pocket money, Christmas gifts or a Saturday job. These days, however, children as young as seven are already fluent in entrepreneurship, running side hustles, talking about profits and losses and razor-sharp in their focus on honing sophisticated business skills.
Research from the children’s debit card company GoHenry found that two in three young people want to be entrepreneurs when they were older, and one in eight have made more than £1,000 from their side hustle in the last year.
