Entrepreneurs

Elon Musk, Richard Branson, and Jim Garland

All of these guys are great entrepreneurs, but they are all very alike and very different in some aspects.

Elon Musk and Richard Branson had some qualities that were very similar. One of the main things that made them similar was that they both invented things that were world changing. Musk made things such as paypal, space x, electric cars, and was also the top supplier of solar panels. All of these things are very important today rather than 50 years ago. He is also very intrested in green energy to help the environment. Branson made things like virgin records, ‘fly virgin airlines’ and his newest thing is space exploration. These things are also very important, but what he did is just improve these services. Now both Musk and Branson are also very different. One of the biggest things i believe that made them different was that musk didn’t exactly like to “show off” his money. Branson on the other hand didn’t mind showing off his money and spending it. Musk began his first company at 23 years old, on the other hand when Branson was 23 he was a millionare. Branson owns an Island, and is very involved in his image, he also would rather have fun over money. Another thing that made them very different was that Musk wasn’t extremely risky. He always did his research and made sure his creation was going to thrive. Branson was an extremely risky person. In his life he took many chances not knowing what exactly would happen. Another difference was that Musk often created things that were not yet created at the time, Branson often just revised an invention that was already made. The biggest thing that Branson has done that has been different is make space travel available to the public which is obviously a very expensive trip. Now lets move to Garland, what made him different from both Branson and Musk was that he started very simple as an entrepreneur, then he slowly moved up to doing the same thing except on a high more expensive equipment. Another thing that made Garland different is that he always put his employees first, he was always very good to his employees and if they needed anything he was more than happy to offer. The only thing that really makes them all extremely alike is that they all started out very young. They are all extremely good at what they do and they are all obviously very wealthy. I believe all of these entrepreneurs enjoy what they are doing. The coolest thing about Garland that makes him different is that he started out with his boat cleaning service and slowly worked his way up to cleaning airplanes. If you are cleaning different forms of transportation for your whole life then you must be extreamely sucessful and really enjoy your job. I personally believe that Musk and Garland are the most alike out of these three entrepreneurs. Branson likes to have fun, take risks, and is all about the enjoyment of his customers.
