Hi,
It is possible. I just read a story of a teenager who built a very successful online business. Very inspiring indeed:http://case-studies.sitesell.com/home-ma…
Good luck to you!

Yeah it’s totally legal. There have been a ton of teenagers that have made a ton of money. I’m not sure how it works out afterward though what with parental guardianship and all. I say go for it but remember that if you are going to start a site you should also include a toll free number on your ads. People will be more likely to buy from you because: a) A toll free makes you look more professional and b) It encourages people to call to get info since they don’t have to pay long distance charges. I recommend Tollfreenumber.ORG. They haven’t let me down yet.
