With a $500 gift from his great-grandfather, he decided to dive into the business. After learning how to resell through a tutor, Ethan's garage quickly transformed into a bustling warehouse. He focused on selling products with minimal profit margins but in high volumes, often driving to Walmart and purchasing large quantities of goods. Ethan's mother provided invaluable support, running her own business and coaching him in entrepreneurship. However, the business eventually became overwhelming, causing Ethan to pause operations in order to prioritize his education and personal growth. Despite the challenges, Ethan remains determined to become an entrepreneur in the future.",
