Entrepreneur

Having lived a simpler life when I was young, I have seen the development of mogul and magnate entrepreneurs and how they hoard the market amassing a great deal of wealth, so I find the word entrepreneur rather negative.
There are, I must say, some business ventures which I admire; being aware of social needs, I admire what is called social and economists entrepreneurs like Muhammad Yunus who developed the concept of microcredit and microfinance which enabled Indian households to leave a life of poverty.
The common ingredient in all entrepreneurs is being driven by an idea or dream, the goal might be profit for self or for helping others as well changing society.
Creating a company takes on a lot of energy and time, but the reason I wouldn't like do it is because I have no great dream to work on, for the time being.
