Most young children spend every minute of their day having fun. They tend to play outside with their friends, play video games, or watch TV. But there are also those who spend their free time working, like the McBrides brothers, aged 12, 10, and 9.
Believe it or not, Marcus, Travell, and Marcelino created their own business, the 3 Amigos Lawncare Service, and they are very good at what they do. So far, around forty families in their hometown of Saginaw, Michigan, regularly use their services.
It all started when the eldest brother, Marcus, shared his idea of starting a business with his mother, Terri Reed, and she loved it. “Marcus told me he wanted to start his own lawn care business,” Terri told Michigan Live. “The next day, I got up and bought all their equipment and work clothes.”
The brothers have earned the trust of their neighbors because they are hardworking and dedicated. What’s the next step for these brothers? Now that summer is over, they plan to expand the services they offer to include leaf and snow removal in their neighborhood.
Their mother, Terri, is extremely proud of her sons. She owns several rental properties in the area, and now that her boys have saved enough money by working hard all summer, they are investing it in an income property.
“They are excited about it,” Terri says. “They get their weekly pay, and everything else is deposited into their business accounts.”
We wish you much success in your future business endeavors.
