Who else started working at the age of 14?  When the laws say you can legally get a job at 15, if you are moticated and like having a little money in your pocket that you earned, you go find a job as soon as possible!

Kent Sr. started working in a grocery store when he could legaly work and hated that he was restricted to 15 hours a week.  The simple fact is, he loved working!  He would even hang around the store after hours just to watch and learn.  

This week's episode is all about how those early lessons and his realizations that learning about everything would lead to more money, would eventually influence the way he would lead Memphis Invest.  

This is the start of Kent Clothier Sr's start as an entrepreneur and you are not going to want to miss!
