New Internet Tycoon Is Only 8-Years-Old

At first impression, Harli Jordean is just another cute, pint-sized kid who loves playing games. Totally adorable right? But little did his parents know he would make it big as an internet businessman. Did we mention that he's only 8-years-old?
Harli's budding entrepreneurship skills began when he lost his marbles to an older kid. He and his mom then went online to order more. It seems that the marble business isn't so big in the UK, so Harli decided he would start his own website selling marbles.

It soon grew into a successful company, raking in thousands of pounds a year. A simple tub of marbles at Marble King goes for 7.99 pounds (S$16.40), while a limited edition Duke of York solitaire tables can set you back 599 pounds. Demand for products is so high that Harli has had to recruit help from his mum and two older brothers.



Harli loves being the boss and wants to turn his marble biz into a chain of toy stores. He told the Daily Mail: “My dream is to have a chain of stores like Hamleys – it will be one of the biggest toy stores in the world but selling all sorts of marbles.”
