Entrepenuers: Standford reflects

[Brian Turner]

A general article of interest on some of Stanford's less famous entrepeneurs, from the Standford business magazine:

I really had to like these quotes:

Shortly before his high school graduation, Bernard Beal tried to cut a deal with his parents: Let him use the money they had saved for his college education to buy a fast-food franchise. Eventually they caved, and by the time his classmates were beginning their post-college careers in the early seventies, he was making $26,800 a year.

"I had two motorcycles, my own apartment, and two girlfriends," the New Yorker recalled recently. "It didn't get any better than that. "But then one day I was held up and got shot, so I decided college wasn't such a bad idea."

good quote.
