Some of the richest people I know aren’t really entrepreneurs. They worked at HP and then moved to Netscape when it got hot. They made a fortune and then jumped to Google and made another fortune. And now they’re jumping to Facebook.

In the same amount of time you can expend twice the effort and get far more in exchange.

At the moment, it’s costing them $1.43 to…

No entrepreneur wants to start a business if he runs the risk of being expelled from the very country in which it has been launched. This is the situation facing two Romanian citizens after embarking on a social network business in Vancouver. The two businessmen were participants in Vancouver’s Bootup Lab Seed Accelerator program last year, where they raised half a million dollars in venture capital for their company. They have already hired one employee and are now looking to hire a second one.
I am an entrepreneur and an engineer. Originally from Romania, I now live in Vancouver building my own startup,
