Entrepreneurship Quick Notes

According to some US government statistics: (I pulled these from a speech)

70% of college graduates will start a business at some point in their careers

In the baby boomer generation each worker held an average of 4 jobs by age 65
In our generation each worker holds 4 jobs by the time they are 30

50% of the jobs in the current US economy are in firms that are less than 5 years old.

And to end it nicely, I have a Bush Quote on entrepreneurship. "The problem with the French economy, is that they don't have a word for entrepreneur" (he he he)

To be fair, there is some debate that he did not really say this.

But if that's false I'll give you three more Bushisms: (sorry, couldn't resist)
1. “I am mindful not only of preserving executive powers for myself, but for predecessors as well.”
2. “Most imports are from outside of the country”
3. “You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.”
