Cynic or realist; up to you >>
Entrepreneurs are people who cannot find or hold top jobs to
me.
I highly doubt the validity of any figures or statistics declaring
outlandish financial returns on being an entrepreneur; I do not
deny their existence but I strongly and firmly believe they are a
minority.
My one sentence view of entrepreneurs also stems from the very
watered down meaning we give to the word in Singapore.
Anyone can be an entrepreneur, but not everyone can be (e.g.
property agent, frontline sales agent, business analyst). Given
that this is sgForums, to indemnify myself from any statements
taking my views to the extreme, I make clear now that I mean the
readiness by which someone can become an compared to becoming an
entrepreneur.
But yea la ... entrepreneurs are hotter; they get heaps of media
publicity and so much public recognition ... general consensus and
response seems to rank entrepreneurs up there with accountants,
engineers, doctors etc.
