Entrepreneur Quiz Scoring:
If most of your scores are 5's, you have a very strong "entrepreneurial streak" and should strive for your goals.
If most of your scores are 4's and 5's with some 3's, you can probably plan to be self-employed.
If you scored mostly 3's and 2's, strongly consider whether you want to commit the time to starting your own business.
If you scored mostly 2's and 1's, it's not likely you're ready to be an entrepreneur, BUT many people have achieved their dreams of self employment even when they started without all the necessary personal characteristics!
