Snappy-Suited Boy, 11, Is Lemonade Entrepreneur

When you walk or drive by the corner of 49th St. and France Ave. in Minneapolis, it’s hard not to notice the 11-year-old boy selling lemonade wearing a business suit.
Ethan Esparza takes dressing for success to a new level. "When the people saw me, they just really thought it was cute," Esparza said. "I got a lot of money, so I thought, ‘Maybe I’ll wear a suit every time I do a lemonade stand'." He started three years ago, when he was only eight, wearing the suit and tie almost every day.
Esparza’s casual attire was a disaster, "Once I wore a T-shirt, I just made five bucks." He works the yard in front of his grandmother’s house every Tuesday and Saturday.
