Over the last few weeks we have been asking you “When did you first realize you had become an entrepreneur?”

Thanks to everyone who entered, the overall joint winners were:

“When i read Rich Dad Poor Dad by Kiyosaki, an uncle gave me that book and changed my way of think …”

“In the pond gathering shanked golf balls. sold them back 2 the golfers at a premium”

So onto the remainder of the results:

• I was at school and I was selling lollipops to kids for $1 and $2 which I was buying for 5cents. LOL
• When I bought my first car at 16 with online profits…”I was like..this is for me”!
• Around age 7 when I was selling baseball cards every weekend down at the corner of my street.
• I’ve always been one. Entrepreneurship is a state of mind, and a fire burning deep within you.
• When I got tired of working for dumbasses and decided to go out on my own…
• When I spent more time reading the busiess classifieds than the sunday comics.
• When my idea had actually been realized by some company, few months later.
• When I bought my 1st car cash from my first fireworks business. Started at age 12 & saved diligently.
• Don’t remember whether it was the summer neighborhood shows or renting comics first.

Time for a Young Entrepreneur poll update! At the beginning of the month we asked you, “When did you first realize you had become an entrepreneur?”

We would love for you to share your story of when you first realized you had become an entrepreneur, and what made this happen? Are you a natural born young entrepreneur, who started in childhood, or did it take you a little longer to make this discovery?

If you would like to take part in our poll and tell us when you first realized you had become an entrepreneur, enter at:

It’s the start of a new poll! This month we’re asking, “When did you first realize you had become an entrepreneur?”

As many of you know, we have recently launched our new book, Kidpreneurs. It’s a kid-friendly introduction to the world of entrepreneurship, where children can learn key business principles in a positive and fun way.

We would love for you to share with us the moment when you first realized you had become an entrepreneur, and what made this happen? Are you a natural born young entrepreneur, who started in childhood, or did it take you a little longer to make this discovery?
