Only if you can get it for almost nothing. The parts are not cheap: http://www.ifixit.com/iPhone-Parts/iPhon...

Now if you can get two or three broken ones with different problems and put together one or two good ones, then you could keep one and sell one (or the individual parts on eBay and come out ahead.

After you have collected a pile of parts you can build an attractive web site and advertise for repair business. Unless you tell them no one will know that you're only 14. Do good work and deal with integrity and honesty and when you're ready for college you can hire three or four guys to do the work and you supervise. You can be the next Kyle Wiens. He'll even set you up with a reseller account so you can get parts at a little bit better price. Go for it.
