Great article! Entrepreneurs are hard to find these days let alone good workers. I blame the welfare system for a starters, living in Australia it's easy money especially if you have a bunch of kids.

Unfortunately a lot of people spend their money before they've even earned it too. Some time ago I wrote about Nathan Whippy Griggs... a young kid (back then), homeschooled, entrepreneur and working for himself. He's just one example of modern day people who have set out to work for themselves and doing it very successfully.

The economy is what you make it! Think outside the box, be determined, keep believing in yourself and your skills, and most of all keep improving yourself.

Be inspired by this homeschooled Guinness World Record holder whip cracker. Nathan "Whippy". @ingridontheroad/whipcracking-inspiration
