8-Year-Old Boy Starts Business, Buys His Family House and Car

An eight-year-old boy started his business. Now his family owns a house and a car. His family's finances were down to $12, but due to his tenacity, he was able to raise funds from it. 

KABC reported that in June, Aaron Moreno's family were struggling with their funds when the young boy started his business. Together with his mom and two other family members, he was living in East Los Angeles shed during that time. 

Started his business 

Based on a GoFundMe page, the little boy came up with the idea of earning money by starting his own business. He wanted to buy Hot Cheetos with cheese without seeking the help of his parents for money. So he decided to be a self-provider.

Moreno started by selling eight plants. Because of his impressive business acumen, his business boomed, which allowed him to earn money to help his family move to another place to live. 

Earned enough to move his family

The money he has earned through selling plants, combined with the money raised in the fundraiser, and his mother's new part-time job, has helped them have a new way of living. Moreno told KABC that he felt happier because they did not have to struggle just like they did before. 

The GoFundMe stated that the eight-year-old was able to buy his mom a car in October. He used his hard-earned money from Aaron's Garden to finally give his mother her first automobile in four years.

The mom admires her son

The California family finally got to move to a different place to live in November. From the shed, the young entrepreneur was able to bring his family to comfort by moving them to an apartment. Berenice Pacheco, Moreno's mom, told the outlet that she could not believe what they could do. 

She explained that they could not believe they were able to move to a house. The proud mom said she admires her son for doing what she could not as his mom. 

Brought his sister back home

Apart from buying a car and a house, Moreno's earnings allowed his sister, Ayleen Pacheco, to come home with them. His sister was living in Mexico for the past two years because of their family's struggles financially.

Ayleen, who had been living with her grandmother, told KABC that she is so proud of her brother, who was able to get her back. Thanks to Moreno, his sister was finally reunited with the family. 

The eight-year-old boy is planning on setting space in their new garage to continue expanding his business. His mom said that while everything that is happening in their lives now is the best, what she loved the most was that her son could help his sister reunite with them. 

She noted that Moreno was like the man of the house because he has been doing everything for the family.
