VIDEO: Parents allow Galway teen to quit school to pursue Youtube business dream

A persuasive Galway teen used a 29-slide powerpoint presentation to get his parents’ permission to quit school.

Conor O’Flaherty had to go through six presentation drafts before his parents finally gave the thumbs up for the 17-year-old to chase an online business dream.

His plan paid off. The teen entrepreneur, in his first year of business, secured a €5,000 bursary prize at the SCCUL Enterprise Awards.
