Teen girl creates million-dollar business with single website
 Ashley Qualls, Million Dollar Baby |
Ashley Qualls does not look like a typical high school student. Maybe that is so because the 17-year-old girl runs her own million-dollar online business. Ashley heads whateverlife.com, a website she started when she was just fourteen with eight dollars borrowed from her mother. Now the site shows a return in nearly one million dollars a year. With this money Ashley bought a big house with an office on the ground floor.
Ashley became interested in graphic design just as the online social networking vogue began. She designed Myspace.com layouts for her friends. The designs turned out cheery and colorful with lots of heart shapes, Ashley’s favorites. She also pulled quotes from popular songs which reflected the website theme. Whateverlife.com created 3,000 designs, a third of which Ashley made herself.
