So You Want to Be An Entrepreneur
By Adam | June 20, 2007
I think most people tend to have a misconceived belief that starting a business is a glamorous pursuit. You can call the shots, do what you want with your time, answer only to yourself, create your own corporate culture, make loads of money, yadda, yadda, yadda. Because it is unpopular to go against this notion, especially in startup circles, most of the information people are fed is backed by this kind of idealism.
Serial internet entrepreneur Marc Andreessen, who has been involved in numerous startups including Netscape, has put together a brilliant post that paints a two-sided portrait of entrepreneurship. It is a breath of fresh, propaganda free air and a must read if you are an internet entrepreneur (would-be or otherwise).
