High School Entreprenuers
Snack Business
Before False Idols, we ran a snack business called Chip Central. It was simple—we bought snacks in bulk and sold them to classmates during school. We were excited to make about $1,300 a week at our peak. For high schoolers, it was crazy.
It wasn’t just about the money, though. Running Chip Central taught us the basics of teamwork, handling money, and understanding what people want. We loved the hustle and the feeling of building something on our own.
Eventually, we wanted more—a way to express ourselves and share a deeper message. That’s what led us to start False Idols. Chip Central was where it all began, and it’s still part of our story.
Why We Started False Idols
We started False Idols with one clear goal: to achieve financial freedom. As high school students, we were dead set on creating something bigger than ourselves. But it wasn’t just about the money.
We’ve always been the type to dive deep into conversations—whether it was with our friends or even our teachers—about real-world issues. Those talks shaped the way we saw things and gave us valuable insights we knew were worth sharing. We wanted to create something that combined our drive for success with our passion for meaningful ideas.
That’s how False Idols came to life—a blend of work ethic and heart. It’s not just a clothing brand; it’s a way to express the lessons we’ve learned and to inspire others to think deeper, live authentically, and question the idols they follow.
