Why Entrepreneurship?

According to Fortune Small Business Magazine (February 2007, www.fsb.com), 66% of individuals polled want to be their own boss and that entrepreneurship has become a national obsession. FSB indicates that the SBA projected the largest business birthrate of nearly 672,000 companies, with employees, being created in 2005. The article further states that “if the nation’s love affair with entrepreneurship continues, then we are in for a bright future...entrepreneurs are more likely to get involved in their communities through service on elected and appointed boards and other types of volunteer work...they also lead the nation in charitable donations...”
