American Entrepreneurship in 2012 #Infographic

You probably think being an entrepreneur is like life at the beach: no boss, no set schedule, no 2 weeks-only a year vacation. But, in reality it requires a great amount of time, effort, and sacrifice. And even if you put in your time, there’s no guarantee of paycheck every two weeks. Fortunately for entrepreneurs and small business owners, there is great opportunity, particularly in America, to achieve success. The fabulous team over at Docstoc have teamed up with the visual startup visual.ly, to put together an infographic demonstrating “America: The Land of Entrepreneurs”.
