A 10-Year Old May Become World’s Youngest To Retire As Multimillionaire

Pixie Curtis, 10 years old, Australian girl is fast on her way to becoming the youngest person in the world to retire a multimillionaire as her toy company made over $140,000 in its first month of operation.

Reports say, Curtis currently has two companies, a toy shop known as, Pixie’s Fidgets and a hair accessories outfit called, Pixie’s Bows. At the launch of Pixie’s Fidgets last year, the toys sold out in just 48 hours.

Even though the 10 years old is still in elementary school, she was able to set up the money making companies with the help of her mother, Roxy Jacenko.

Jacenko reportedly, set up the hair accessory company when Curtis was only a baby.

Curtis’ mother confirmed: “She can retire at 15 if she wants to.”

“Our family joke has been I’ll be working till I’m 100 and Pixie will have retired at 15 – I certainly know who’s smarter,” Jacenko said

This must have been a case of a child taking after her parents as Jacenko is the owner of several successful businesses, including Sweaty Betty PR.

Since made public, Curtis’ story has gained her a large following on social media, amassing more than 100,000 followers on Instagram, alone.

Her mother further explained: “I have said it from day one, the moment Pixie doesn’t want to be front-facing or be involved with Pixie’s Pix and Pixie’s Bows then we will reassess. But for now, she is happy, learning so much.”
