Formally I was 16 when I started in the Italian as a washer upper and became sous chef inside a month (by the end of the year I drank caffeine and alcohol in near equal volumes and always had cash in my pocket from tips and tidbits)
Informally I started on my self employment journey at 8 pulling scrap metal out of rubbish tips and commercial skips and by the time I was formerly employed had dabbled with washing cars, selling energy drinks & chocolate bars at school as well as making my start in silver and gold dealing
