Are entrepreneurs risk takers?

by ShannonCherry on May 27th, 2008

Keith McFarland’s new Time magazine article claims that entrepreneurs aren’t really fearless.

Do you take risks?And I must disagree.

He says that many people starting up companies think in terms as a brilliant experiment - that if it doesn’t work out they can go back to getting a ‘real job.’

It’s taking that initial leap -rather than staying in a secure environment - that’s truly a leap of faith. So many people dream of having their own business, yet few actually do it.

What do you think? Is McFarland off base?
