0:00.0	All right, today we're trying something new. We have three high school students, ninth graders,
0:03.4	10th graders, 11th graders that all are running their own business while they're in school.
0:07.1	And not just like, oh, here's my idea. These guys have real revenue, tens of thousands of dollars

0:57.2	We have high school students who have existing businesses.
1:01.1	They're running businesses.
1:01.9	They're making a lot of revenue.
1:03.2	They're making money.
