What actually is a start-up? Since the Great Recession (not so great for most people), the UK and many other countries have experienced a growth in new business formation. Does this suggest a burst of entrepreneurial zeal or an increase in people starting a business because they couldn t get a job. People often ask me about entrepreneurship, presumably on the basis that I have some special insight. I don t. But I do recognise that there are good reasons to start up a business and some not so good ones. The first thing to say is that start ups are really hard work compared to normal jobs. And I mean really hard. In my opinion, the best place to be is the owner of a profitable, private company. Next place, a nice comfortable job that you enjoy. Last place, working in a start up because it looks like fun. Or maybe not last place, but you probably get the idea. Entrepreneurship born of desperation is a term I ve come across recently. I can t get a job, so I need to start up something. Thi
