Who is the better entrepreneur? The teen/early adult who makes a million off of new creative ideas, smokes pot while he checks his daily earnings, spends large amounts of cash on all female orgies, and dropped out of highschool? Or the professional college educated business man who attends weekly conference calls with big wigs, sips wine from expensive glasses, and enjoys playing classical music while he reads his e-mails?
I'm not a guy that likes costumes I like weed beer and expensive cars so i'm first choice Education is for fools and a waste of time (school sux) Just my 2 cents
Don't see what this question has to do with who is a better entrepreneur... They both are. Just because one puts more thought in their idea doesn't make them better. What your asking is basicly 'Who lives a better life style'.
If person A went through 4 years of college and did twice as much work to make $250,000 and person B made $250,000 a lot easier with a simpler idea at a younger age with no school... this Person B is better to me...even if he just got lucky (In my opinion.)
In that case, without thinking of any variables, yes, Person B is better... if he can keep making that money throughout his life. But without any college, if that money runs out - he will be working at a fast food joint. But most entrepreneur's decide to go to college, and presue their idea(s) after they have an education as a back fall if something did not work right. IMO, your scenario tells me Person B made out better, at least in the short run, but Person A was the smarter one.
Whoever makes the most cash at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter who you are or how you project yourself, if you are not successful than you are a nobody!
lol education through college isn't just for the money, its a goal in life that very few succeed and it makes you a better person for doing it. college is an eye opener and its tough, i have little respect for people who are sitting on millions and didn't work hard for it. Money isn't everything If you have all the money and everyone hates you because your the idiot who didn't deserve it. Lots of people become jealous and look badly at you. If you have an education you earned it not to mention your a more intelligent person for it. Money can't change who you are and something tells me that if your an uneducated person with that kind of money. it won't last very long and then your back to wal-mart pushing carts.
Education will make you much more disciplined!! If success is not hard earned .... then it won't stay with you for long or would change you completely!! Take for example Britney Spears ..... her early success ruined her ...
You are misguided in judging a person's success merely by the amount of money he makes. Education is essential to develop and broaden one's understanding of the world and every minute spent in gaining this understanding is worth it. Not surprisingly, ALL the people in the Forbes list of richest people in the world have at least attended college and many of them hold graduate degrees. Incidentally, many fresh graduates of top US and UK schools get starting ANNUAL salaries in the range of 250-300 K while still in their mid to late twenties. Top managers, super-specialized doctors, top lawyers, top accountants and many scientists earn well above a million dollar in a year while still below the age of 40. While some people with no education do achieve such success in their businesses etc., but that does not suggest that having no education is a good starting point to becoming a millionaire. Just my two cents.
Both of em. If they are both really successful they are both good entrepreneurs. Equally matched I say.
Doesn't matter, if both of that reached the same level, then they are both just as good as the other. They just used different methods to get to that point.
depends on where they started and how they got there. If person A came from a rich family and was able to use that to his advantage and person B came from no where and did everything on his own I'd go with B since he had a harder road. That being said give me the booze and orgies.
