00:00:00.099 --> 00:00:02.540
You picked entrepreneur number two.

00:00:02.540 --> 00:00:03.540
Let's see how you did.

00:00:03.540 --> 00:00:08.080
So entrepreneur number two started PayPal
with current revenues of seven point nine

00:00:08.080 --> 00:00:09.830
billion dollars.

00:00:09.830 --> 00:00:14.530
They were purchased by eBay for one point
five billion dollars.

00:00:14.530 --> 00:00:19.120
Let's go back and have a look at that entrepreneur
and see what we can learn from the profile.

00:00:19.120 --> 00:00:24.070
Entrepreneur number two is 23 years old, and
a new resident to the United States when he

00:00:24.070 --> 00:00:25.660
started this business.

00:00:25.660 --> 00:00:30.460
He completed a bachelors in computer science,
at University of Illinois, and also we want

00:00:30.460 --> 00:00:33.399
to notice the four failed business ventures.

00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:36.040
This person didn't let failure stop him.

00:00:36.040 --> 00:00:38.249
He persisted, and he continued on.

00:00:38.249 --> 00:00:42.109
So what we want you to notice from this is
a young person can start a business and a

00:00:42.109 --> 00:00:46.899
successful one, and the finishing university
was probably a great idea for this person.

00:00:46.899 --> 00:00:48.969
So do you think you made the right choice?
