Let me tell you my favorite entrepreneurial true story.
There is a guy with a simple but big dream:  His dream was to become an entrepreneur and be financially independent to retire early.
Of many possible entrepreneurial paths, he chose franchising for 2 major reasons: Firstly, he didn&#8217;t have any entrepreneurial experience.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sir Richard Branson has been one of my role models for years.  His flamboyant personality, can-do attitude and outside-the-box thinking inspires me in my entrepreneurial journey in one way or another. I love the way he raises his kids, in such a way that they kept grounded even though they can do anything with their father&#8217;s wealth. I love how he creates a fun working environment at Virgin.

Well, if you don&#8217;t know who Richard Branson is, here is one sentence that can pretty much describe who he is: Sir Richard Branson is a British entrepreneur who founded Virgin Group, a holding company of over 400 companies.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I manage and run several business websites. One of them is a business blog in cloud computing niche. As you might already known, cloud computing is a rising trend, and as more companies adopted it, the more important it will become in the future.  In fact, this is the very reason why I started the blog.

Probably you&#8217;ve guessed right, but to set the record straight: I&#8217;m not a cloud computing expert.  I do have an interest in cloud computing and I do use cloud-based services (in fact, my business runs in the cloud.) However, for some reasons, despite low in traffic due to some issues with Google algorithm updates, my business website is having quite a reputation, especially among the business cloud communities.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Advertising and marketing is one of the most lucrative industries on the planet, with billions of dollars being spent on campaigns to try to boost brand awareness and sales in markets all around the world.&#160; That said adverts are notorious for being one of the most annoying things that any of us can encounter at a particular time. Whether it is on television, in a magazine, or on the radio, many of us tune out once the adverts kick in.

Online advertising has been growing at a healthy rate for many years, and the trend is set to continue through the rest of this decade, and surely further into the future, too.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay &#8211; I&#8217;m impressed. Many are impressed.  Finally, the future which we can only dream of when watching Mission Impossible is here, today.
Google Glass, although still a prototype and you had to compete with thousands other to get one and try it yourself (application for this has been closed, by the way&#8230;,) the conversation has started to heat up.

&#8230;and the hype is also fueled by the media, which buzz the high-tech glasses: Google Glass for adult entertainment; the now dropped potentially-privacy-buster facial recognition capabilities; the many uses of Google Glass &#8211; including healthcare, commerce and humanitarian &#8211; to name a few.&#8230;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The media &#8211; TV, film and online, haven&#8217;t been seen as integral to the UK&#8217;s overall economic performance, but the creative industries do seem to bring some financial benefits. Well over 100,000 people work in old and new media &#8211; newspapers, TV stations, creative agencies, film studios and even social media sites are all major employers.

Auntie gives generously
As the oldest broadcasting institution in the UK, the BBC has become a reliable source of information and entertainment, whatever some people think of their recent output.&#8230;]]></description>
