An average American child has gone through $14,300 worth of clothes by age 17 and thrown out 1,300 items. ThredUP, a San Francisco startup, helps parents buy cheap boxes of second-hand clothes as other kids outgrow them. More than 200,000 parents have joined since April 2010 and helped recycle 50,000 pounds of clothes. Learn about the entrepreneurs behind it.

Also discover where unused Groupons get a second life, and meet the man who writes software for Paul McCartney and Eminem. Find out why your bank may soon pay you interest on your business checking account; take a look at Google's new credit card; and learn how universities can help entrepreneurs. Finally, suggest an entrepreneur 25 or younger for our seventh annual roundup of young starters-up.
