For me, yes. But I do know that owning your own business isn’t for everyone. Some people really like to work for someone else.

Is being an Entrepreneur overrated?

Heck I don’t know. I don’t think so in my situation, but others might feel different.

Do you agree that a child can start a business or do you think it’s important to learn to work for others before you work for yourself?

Some people were just born to be their own boss so I don’t think you NEED to work a job before you start a business. Some people have no desire to own a business and would rather work a job. I think it’s important to give them both options and encourage and support them whatever way they decide to go.

I learned paperwork and following a papertrail was a must, as was being able to show said papertrail worked.
I also learned that there was more to management skills than yelling, and that innovation only worked if everyone understood where you were coming from.
Teamwork was only such when everyone was getting *something* from it – and a lot besides.

Being an entrepreneur is definatly not what people believe. I can’t really pinpoint one area that people that know I work from home have it right. Most of all I think its hard to get people to understand that work is exactly that, and that ‘working from home’ is more ‘work’ than ‘home’.
I think a child CAN – but like I said, I picked up some skills working with others that I don’t think I’d have learned any other way.
