Here is another interesting interview for you, this time it is with the entrepreneurial 15 year old Benjamin Lang. I hope you enjoy it!

Firstly, could you please tell us about yourself? (Who are you, where do you live, how old are you, what do you do for a living?)

I’m 15 years old. I live in New York currently. I’ve lived in a few different countries and speak 3 languages. I started an eBay selling business about 7 months ago, the real spark came when I was on Channel 12. From there business grew and I started working on web design. So now I sell stuff on eBay and I am starting to design people’s sites.

You have a variety of websites and skills, why did you start these and how did you go about it?

Well as I learnt more and more I became more curious… so I bought a few websites, started doing a few different things and learnt on the way.

How do you keep yourself motivated?

I don’t need motivation, I’m always motivated!

I know that you went to Israel, how did this help you and what did you learn there?

Well Israel was a turning point in my life not only in the business aspect. I did though start my ebay business there. I started by selling my grandfather’s camera equipment online. The cash started pouring in because it was quite expensive equipment. So I thought, maybe if I sold other people’s stuff I could make even more… which eventually lead to the creation of my business.

Have you ever had times where you thought yourself or your websites as a “failure”? If so how did you stop feeling like it? If not how do you keep yourself so optimistic?

The only site of mine that’s not going very well is www.teenbizstarter.com. I wanted to help out other teens start businesses but I can get the site how I want it so it’s not really going anywhere.

Do you believe that entrepreneurialism is in the blood or that it can be learned?

I think its both. My dad is an entrepreneur but I think that you can learn how to be one if you are very motivated.

What advice would you recommend to other young entrepreneurs?

I would say networking, perseverance and creativity is very crucial. I’ve been working on networking very hard. It takes a lot of effort but pays off. Perseverance I feel that I’ve mastered, I try very hard to be successful at everything I do. Creativity is very important and I’m still working on it.

What plans do you have the future?

I’d like to start bigger companies and work as an entrepreneur for my whole life. Hopefully by the time I’m 21 I’ll be competing with Google.

Thank you very much Ben. I am sure you can see why this is inspirational, everything he says shows that he has dedication and purpose. I wish him the best of luck, perhaps he might even stick around here and help give tips?
