Re: Is it better to become an entrepreneur at an early age? Re: Is it better to become an entrepreneur at an early age? - The younger you are the better you are at learning. I just posted a new thread that one of our teams won 2nd place at the FLL competition. these kids are at age 11-12, and they learned most of the skills by themselves. They know how to read and write in English. Kids in Israel just start learning English at the age of 10. They learned programing skills, etc. One of the kids learn how to use the Gimp program in one hour! That was amazing, all he knew before is how to work with windows' paint, and I downloaded gimp and he made posters for the team. This is why there are many schools for 3 years old, teaching them English and math. To answer you question, Kevin, I thing young is good, after you learn different skills, you can start at an early age. Kids in my country have a little advantage, they have to go to the army for 2 years, this experience is preparing you to life, and you have to mature early. And the best thing about it the early retirement too. A good entrepreneur will be able to retire early, this is everyones dream.
Re: Moderators on vacation Re: Moderators on vacation - Just letting you all know in case anyone happens to wonder where I am at... I will be leaving for vacation early tomorrow morning (July 17th) and won't be back until late on next Saturday, July 24th. Going to the Ozarks for a week of boating, swimming, eating, drinking, and relaxing. Have a great week and make some major money while I am gone!
Vacation Notice Vacation Notice - Just letting you all know that after today (2/8/12) I won't be here at the forums for almost a week. I leave for Jamaica early tomorrow morning.
My Daily Routine My Daily Routine - I'm usually up at 6:30, have a quick breakfast and get an early start to work. It's nice to have an hour or so before the phones start ringing. I'm maybe a little to addicted to my Outlook as I'm on it all day creating and responding to emails. Things tend to settle down in the afternoon and I get most of my tasks done in the morning so I can use that time to research, browse for ideas, and post on this forum! How about you Jen?
