14 year old affiliate marketer
Shawn Collins interviewed a 14 year old internet marketer on his webmasterradio.fm show. The interview starts about 30% of the way through.
Amusingly, when asked how he was doing he replied “I’m actually at lunch, in school.” You can check out his blog at CPAShare.com.

I set up my company when I was 14, and made over $5000 from AzoogleAds in one month when I was 14 also. I bet it’s quite common.

I remember doing porn affiliates when I was a freshman in high school, that’s pretty much all that was out back then. W/no spam laws you could make some serious money
Congrats Harrison and goodluck in the industry.

One of the things I truly love about the Internet – age is absolutely no barrier. Fantastic.

I applaud this gentleman’s entrepreneurial spirit at a young age and hope he keeps showing what youthful determination can do, but it’s a pity that schoolwork doesn’t play a more prominent role in his daily routine. It’s certainly not ‘cool’ to focus on school and there are natural born geniuses like Bill Gates that are exceptions to the rule, but the affiliate dollars he’s making now are no substitute for an education if he ever wants to be taken seriously at much more than affiliate marketing. The spelling in the post (while better than some bloggers much older) is evidence of where some polish is required…

I know a handful of very wealthy people whose spelling skills are somewhat better than a 5th graders. Unfortunately most schoolwork falls under the category of busy work making it more of a destructive force than a constructive one.

Anyone who believes this kid is a fool. His Father is Steven Gevirtz. A successful multi-millionaire investor and businessman. http://streamline-capital.com/principals.html
He is also linked to Katana Capital Advisors LLC and Katana Fund LLC. http://www.secinfo.com/d118ez.5s.htm
It is no wonder that young Herrison here is doing so well with his multi-millionaire father behind him. His father is the primary account holder on the Black Card Amex, and his Harrison is just an Authorized User, but you’d never know since this is all a gimmick to drive interviews and business.
If you look into his companies it’s all VERY shady. Harrison has also done ringtone advertising and other shady things to make money. It’s no “accident’ shoemoney is involved either, everyone pats their own back. They are sending the message “if a 16 year old can do it, anyone canâ€. This is MLM (multi level marketing) at work, the more salesmen these guys bring in the more money they make and it’s no coincidence that his father is a hugely successful business man. Harrison is nothing more than a prop for business.
Harrison’s companies also employ the help of Dennis Yu, if you search him out he is a “London School of Finance†graduate and internet marketing expert. Google his name and you’ll find his history is impressive and full of success.
If I had a multi-millionaire father and a successful internet marketer to help me along with my business, I’d succeed too.
This is all just a big scam and Harrison is just a normal 16 year old.. with a multi-millionaire, successful father and college educated, successful internet marketer behind him.
