So You Want to be a Student Entrepreneur?

You can be successful while studying for your degree. I agree that with the right knowledge and tools you can begin your own business.

Moreen explains the pros and cons of being a student entrepreneur and how to begin the process.

Here's what caught my attention:

• Those who are in their twenties are more apt to be risk takers. These students can leverage their connections with fellow classmates and professors.

• Raising enough capital is one of the biggest challenges of starting a new business. Spending less time with friends and family is also a reality.

• As a business owner you can learn a lot of new skills as you start to wear several hats. Not only are you the manager, but you are also the marketer, accountant, and financier.
