Entrepeneurs
In this paper, I am going to talk about the contest of business and some of its greatest entrepreneurs. The three entrepreneurs that I have researched are Bill Gates, Master P, and Ben & Jerry. I will be looking at their backgrounds, financial assets, beginnings, and contributions.Born on October 28, 1955, Gates and his two sisters grew up in Seattle. Their father, William H. Gates, is a Seattle attorney. Their late mother, Mary Gates, was a schoolteacher, University of Washington regent and chairwoman of United Way International. Gates attended public elementary school and the private Lakeside School. There, he began his career in personal computer software, programming computers at age 13. Today, Bill Gates is the richest man in the world, worth over $100 billion. He is chairman and chief executive officer of Microsoft Corporation, the leading provider, worldwide, of software for the personal computer.

The two settled on ice cream, and the rest is history. 5 million profit that Master P made in 1998, he has given some of it back to his hometown. He followed the latter to a college basketball scholarship, but personal setbacks and family tragedy knocked down the game on his list of priorities.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield are the brains behind a multi-million dollar ice cream industry. 5% of their pre tax profits to nonprofit organizations. BeginningAt Oberlin College, Jerry got his first taste of working in the ice cream industry when he took a job as a scooper in the college cafeteria. In his junior year, Gates dropped out of Harvard to devote his efforts to Microsoft, a company he had begun in 1975 with Paul Allen. They came to know each other trying to run track in gym class. Reality was right outside the window: poverty, crime, and murder were nothing new. ------------------------------------------------------------------------**Bibliography**.
