There is a differences between being a CEO of a $200 business and a CEO of a $50mil+ business.

You technically can be considered legally a CEO as soon as you incorperate. Other than that, you cannot grant yourself that title. For instants, when you file taxes, etc for your business, you cannot file as such.

And as for children putting that as their job title--It is a little fraudulent--then again, it just shows they have no real concept of what they are trying to get involved with.


I think it'd be rather funny though--when one applies for a job at a local min wage job like Mc Donalds and puts "CEO" as their past job experience.
