Did you start your first company with a business-partner?

[LukasOO]

Hello fastlaners.
I'm 16 years of age, and im currently in the making of a business. I attend to college currently, but have plenty of time. However, I could in some scenarios use a business partner to discuss further changes of business and so forth.

Did you guys start your first business alone or with a business partner?
