What do you do once you’ve hit the entrepreneurial jackpot? Do you play golf for the rest of your life? Retire to a private island in the Caribbean? Spend oodles of time with your children? Ah, the tough choices when your entrepreneurial dreams come true.
As much as we all want to hit it big (and big can be defined in many different ways), the question facing a lot of entrepreneurs is: so, what’s next? Obviously, entrepreneurs are a different breed of cat, who enjoy the risks and rewards of starting and running their own businesses. They look at opportunities in a different way than the rest of us who are content to check a weekly paycheck to pay the mortgage and put food on the table.
Read Write/Web has an interesting look at the “what’s next” question for the four different types of dot-com millionaires: serial entrepreneurs, dreamers, Midas and consistents.
In some ways, it’s probably an easier decision for older entrepreneurs who have toiled away before finally striking it rich as opposed to young entrepreneurs who may never enjoy the same kind of success for the rest of their career.
