I recently read about three, young successful entrepreneurs with web based businesses (all in their 20s). These individuals represent a new breed of business executives, who are using their passion and technological know-how against experience and education. They have chosen to take the initiative in life and are inspired by the prosperity of entrepreneurial role models, programs, and of course, the Web. Their youthful bravery, and decreasing employee loyalty in the workplace (from merger layoffs and downsizing) greatly influenced their decision to create their own businesses online.

Success stories in this field are common for young CEOs, where entrepreneurs depend on the anonymity, the universal access, and the low overhead costs of the Web, which are the operating expenses of a business. These young men say that potentially, you have a chance to build your company at a young age and establish a reputation as someone who does their job well.

I know this career path isn't for everyone, probably including me, but it is inspiring to see young people have early success in life by choosing to take charge of it.
