Entrenepreneur #2

0:00 - 0:03

You picked entrepreneur number two.
0:03 - 0:04

Let's see how you did.
0:04 - 0:08

So entrepreneur number two started PayPal
with current revenues of seven point nine
0:08 - 0:10

billion dollars.
0:10 - 0:15

They were purchased by eBay for one point
five billion dollars.
0:15 - 0:19

Let's go back and have a look at that entrepreneur
and see what we can learn from the profile.
0:19 - 0:24

Entrepreneur number two is 23 years old, and
a new resident to the United States when he
0:24 - 0:26

started this business.
0:26 - 0:30

He completed a bachelors in computer science,
at University of Illinois, and also we want
0:30 - 0:33

to notice the four failed business ventures.
0:33 - 0:36

This person didn't let failure stop him.
0:36 - 0:38

He persisted, and he continued on.
0:38 - 0:42

So what we want you to notice from this is
a young person can start a business and a
0:42 - 0:47

successful one, and the finishing university
was probably a great idea for this person.
0:47 - 0:49

So do you think you made the right choice?
