A lot of people who own a business aren't entrepreneurial at all.

Part of the magic of a startup is the fear of death. You have only so much money in the bank, and if you don't get to the right milestone before you run out, then the company goes under - it's over.

The truth is, there are many types of businesses that require thousands of dollars to be invested during the startup period. However, there are also many different types of business models that you can run from the comfort of your own home without having to reach too deep into your wallet.

Not all startups are alike. One of the key ways they differ is in the relationship between a startup's new product and its market.

If a company is profitable, the founder is in control. If it's not, investors are in control.

Most people work for the private sector, which cannot exist without profit.

As any small business owner knows, starting a business is not glamorous work.

As an entrepreneur, the pressures of a startup can be enormous, but it's rarely life or death.

I don't think a lot of people have been entrepreneurial about venture capital.
